Taking to the comments section, one person wrote: “Love watching Steve bring things back to life. Such a talented man,” while another added: “This man is at the top of his game. Absolute pleasure to watch.”

A third follower commented: “YOU Sir, are brilliant!”

Steve’s video comes amid a break in broadcasting during the show’s latest season. BBC One hasn’t aired a new episode of the show since 5 July, and instead has broadcast reruns from previous series every Wednesday evening.

It’s a busy period for the show’s team as they are also gearing up to film this year’s Christmas special. Woodwork expert Will Kirk encouraged viewers to contact the show with their festive treasured items. 

He said in a video posted to Instagram: “Ho, ho ho! Well, it’s not really Christmas yet but it will be soon.

“We are casting for Christmassy items at The Repair Shop. So if you have anything Christmassy at home that needs fixing, please get in touch.”

While the show hasn’t shared the release date for the remaining episodes of series 12, we do know that the programme will be on air for another two years. 

Host Jay Blades announced the good news at the TV BAFTAS in May after the show won the Daytime Award.

“We are going to do more. We’ve just won a BAFTA so I think they’re going to want us to stay on air.”
