The Repair Shop has left fans emotional after a guest shared a touching story about a miniature boat model built by his late father.
Jon Keogh from Glasgow brought a replica prawn trawler into the barn, explaining that it was a model of a boat he and his father once worked on and owned. His father, also named Jon, built the model from memory after being made redundant from the Clyde shipyards.
Keogh told host Jay Blades that his father died in 2007, but the memories of their time fishing together on the Clyde remain close to his heart. He described his father as a craftsman who 'could repair anything'.
The expert team restored the model, and Keogh was thrilled with the result, calling it 'perfect' and saying it looked like the first day they got it. He plans to pass the boat down through his family to keep his father's memory alive.
Viewers took to social media to express their emotions, with one calling the boat 'glorious' and another branding the show their 'weekly weep'.
