BBC The Repair Shop expert makes hard decision after restoring 'special' clock The Repair Shop expert Steve Fletcher was faced with a challenging decision during the restoration of a 30-year-old clock, marking a first for the show.
In a previous episode of the popular BBC restoration programme, Karen visited the barn hoping to have her grandad's 1950s alarm clock repaired.
"When I hear the tick of the clock it takes me back to sitting at the bottom of the bed while grandad was sleeping after a heavy night shift, knowing that things are silent enough for my grandad to rest.
David sadly passed away in 2013 aged 87, and since then, Karen has cherished his clock and hat, reports Gloucestershire Live.
"This was the one thing that Karen's grandfather David would have touched every time he turned the alarm off, and I thought there's a certain connection there if it's the same piece her grandfather actually touched.".
