If it's a repeat of the original or a 2nd series, you may be in for a
disappointment. The original series was more in the genre of "Lifestyle"
programming aimed at a BBC1 audience rather than an honest to goodness
DIY "Howto" for a BBC2/4 audience. :-(


I watched a few before becoming bored, for exactly that reason.

Someone should wave a camera in a real repair cafe, and do a
continuously updated youtube channel or video podcast?

That might fly? ...


We've been on the telly a few times, but several hours of filming
is condensed into about 15 seconds, the maximum time the presenter
thinks the audience will stick with


I don't watch much dumbed down TV for that reason.

Prefer much more technical detail that exists on YouTube about the
subject, not the person, their presentation style, their back story etc.

It's incidental, but not the whole story.

Think I should turn up to one of those repair events
