Synopsis
The Repair Shop with a competition element. On this show, people bring items they want to sell to a restorers' workshop. Two experts analyse it, and then each offers to buff it up for a share of the eventual sale price. The bulk of the show follows the repair process, and the eventual result. Of particular appeal if you're into BBC1's The Repair Shop and Find It Fix It Flog It.
Trivia

A series of reversions aired from 9 September 2021 at 9pm on More4 with Matt Baker narrating instead; these lasted two episodes before being pulled.
