Jay Blades鈥� workshop makes furniture for local heroes in Yorkshire. This week, a 12-year-old who saved his dad鈥檚 life and a woman who gets furniture to those in need.
This week, Jules and Jackie come to the workshop to tell Jay about their son Henry, who saved Jules鈥檚 life when the pair were on a run in the countryside. Jules collapsed suddenly with a heart attack, and 12-year-old Henry administered CPR and called the emergency services. His quick thinking and calm actions saved his dad鈥檚 life. Henry is into gaming, so Ciaran goes all out for his team鈥檚 final build with a first-class airplane cabin style gaming chair, complete with surrounding shelves and even a fridge. It鈥檚 an ambitious build for Les and Ant.
Jay crosses Bradford to Thorpe Edge, where he meets Angela. She wants to nominate Brenda, who runs a non-profit furniture service that helps local people in need. Brenda started it three decades ago with just a container on an estate, but it鈥檚 now grown to fill a massive warehouse site. Isabelle designs a bench made from durable Douglas fir, to sit outside the caravan Brenda recently moved to. With matching hand-carved peacock heads and complex joinery, Isabelle is pushing her team of Graham and Becky with their final project.
Saf and his team make a walnut and ash drinks trolley for Pav 鈥� a man who cheers up his local community by bringing them music via a mobile sound system, dressed in a trademark silver suit.
Finally, the workshop teams gather together for an emotional goodbye.
