Sparking a reaction from fans, many were quick to comment. “Looking smooth, gentlemen,” replied one. “You wear them well gentlemen,” added another. Meanwhile, a third referred to them as, “The Three Amigos” and a fourth wrote, “You’re all looking good, looking forward to the new series.”
Currently, the cast is back on set at the Weald and Downland Living Museum in Sussex. Will’s latest post will certainly have delighted fans, especially as The Repair Shop has been on hiatus over the last few weeks.

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. According to the BBC website, there are six episodes remaining of the current season and while we don’t know when exactly the new instalments will air, it’s exciting to see that the cast is back in the barn.

The cast and crew have the best time making The Repair Shop, and they share the sweetest bond. Speaking to The Guardian in 2023, Jay Blades said: “We spend nine months a year filming, all staying in the same hotel and having meals together, so we’ve become like a family.”
Asked how long he intends to stay on The Repair Shop, Jay replied: “I don’t see myself going anywhere. If they’ll have me, you might see me grow very old in that barn. I already shave my head but my eyebrows might go grey.”

Embroiderer Sara Dennis has also opened up about working with the cast, telling Hobbies & Crafts: “Being with the other experts, all extremely talented in their own field, is an absolute pleasure.
“The whole team – experts, camera crew and staff are some of the kindest, most humble people you could wish to meet. They are just as they appear on screen: welcoming and generous. I am not sure how they found me, or how I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to work with them!”
