Dumfries and Galloway - A Book for Lockerbie

In this episode, the experts lend their skills to a community project, hear the story behind a new treasure to be repaired, and visit a local crafting hero. 

Will and Kirsten are in Dumfries and Galloway, in the Scottish Borders, to help with a project close to the hearts of the local community. Firefighter Rodger was one of the first responders to the Lockerbie bombing and was tasked with collecting photographs of the event and its aftermath for a report. These photographs have since lain undisturbed in Rodger's attic, and he would now like them collected and preserved in a book for the new memorial centre planned at Tundergarth Kirk. 

Hoping to get a beloved childhood toy back on track, Will is joined by Scotland-based automata expert Michael. Sheila has brought the pair a clockwork train set that was her father's pride and joy until it was damaged during a fight with Sheila's siblings many years ago. Now, a gummed-up mechanism and twisted tracks mean this is one train that will never run on schedule. However, between Michael's mechanical know-how and Will's paintwork, the train might just be brought back into service. 

Ceramics expert Kirsten is used to fixing broken jugs and vases but until now has never actually had to make her own. She is in Corsock to learn the secrets behind slipware from potters Doug and Hannah, who are preserving this medieval technique, which uses liquid clay known as slip, to decorate pots, jugs and anything else for the home. However, it's a messy business, so Kirsten's white jacket may not make it through unscathed.
