Emotional Dame Judi Dench wiped away a tear after being given the full Repair Shop treatment by Jay Blades and his team, to mark the hit show’s fifth anniversary.
The actress, 87, was visibly moved after a pocket-watch she gave her late husband Michael Williams in 1972 was restored to full working order by horologist Steve Fletcher.
She told Blades that actor Michael had “treasured” the watch she gave him when they appeared on stage together in the play London Assurance, and that it reminded her of the happy times they’d shared.
