Preserving heritage craft skills and ensuring the training of a new generation is a passion both The Prince and Jay share as they discuss in the special which transmits on Wednesday, 26th October at 8pm on BBC One.

They also met with students benefitting from our Building Craft Programme, which helps preserve heritage building craft skills that are at risk of being lost through education and training. Over the past five years, The Repair Shop has done of a wonderful job of showcasing the skill involved in craftsmanship, and of highlighting the importance of repairing items, rather than replacing them, so it was a very natural collaboration." The programme was filmed between Autumn 2021 and March 2022 before His Majesty became King Charles III.

ANTIQUE FIRESIDE MEDIEVAL KNIGHTS

As a result of the visit a skills swap ensues: Jay, Kirsten, Steve and Will pledge to restore two historic pieces that The Prince has selected while The Building Craft Programme lends graduate Jeremy Cash to the Repair Shop to work with metalwork expert, Dom Chinea on a very special third item – a fire set in the shape of a soldier with a poignant story behind its existence.

Jay Blades said: “You’ve got someone from a council estate and someone from a Royal estate that have the same interests about apprenticeships and heritage crafts and it is unbelievable to see that two people from so far apart, from different ends of the spectrum, actually have the same interests.” Meanwhile Collections Manager, Satinder Kaur, gives Will, Kirsten and Steve a tour of the collection of eighteenth-century furniture and decorative arts, that are housed at Dumfries House. Jay Blades and ceramics expert, Kirsten Ramsay; horologist Steve Fletcher; and furniture restorer, Will Kirk are invited to Dumfries House in Scotland to meet The Prince and learn about The Prince’s Foundation’s work to train the next generation of craftspeople. In Spring 2022 Jay and the team are delighted to welcome His Royal Highness to The Repair Shop barn to be reunited with the items. Then, Jay and the team are delighted to welcome the prince to the barn to be reunited with the items.Executive producer of The Repair Shop and Managing Director of Ricochet, Joanna Ball, says: “We’re so happy that The Repair Shop can play a part highlighting how important passing on craft skills to the next generation is. Hosting His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales at the barn was a real privilege for the whole team.”
