BBC confirms Repair Shop's return along with two special anniversary episodes
"We cannot wait to share these four new peak episodes with you! We were honoured to welcome Poet Laureate Simon Armitage to the barn, and our two specials for Windrush and the NHS are also incredible," he said.
"Meeting Patrick Vernon OBE who has done so much to commemorate an important part of Black British history has been a personal high. And it was so moving for us to repair acclaimed author Michael Rosen's important document of his time in hospital during COVID. Generally, the stories and repairs in these four programmes are incredible and as ever we're super proud of the team."
The first episode will kick off welcoming the Poet Laureate Armitage where he hopes organ restorer David Burville can revive his treasured harmonium, the subject of one of his poems that holds memories of his late father. Other treasures that will enter the barn include an early sculpture by an eminent Czech artist, a pair of child's leather clogs, and a silver charm bracelet.
