Ballroom Prize Clock Sparkles Once More | The Repair Shop

➤ Subscribe ➤ bit.ly/RepairSh...
The first visitor of the day is Vicky Oakes. She’s brought a mantelpiece clock she’d like horologist Steve Fletcher to take on. Her parents won the gold clock in a ballroom dancing competition. They danced together throughout their long, happy marriage and competed in several amateur dancing championships, winning countless trophies - but this particular clock was always treasured. Vicky lost her father several years ago, and her mother, now in her nineties, suffers from dementia. Vicky believes seeing and hearing the clock ticking again might spark some lovely memories on the dance floor with her childhood sweetheart. The clock has been silent since Vicky was a teenager, and Steve must clean and recondition every part of the mechanism to bring it back to life.

Is this social distancing? Why are they standing 10 miles from her?

[@svenska81]

Yes, it is social distancing.

[@Catra7]

I believe season 7 was filmed in 2020, so yes, suicidal distancing.
