Jay Blades rescues some lampshades, piling metal, a radio and windbreaker poles bound for the skips at Altrincham recycling centre.

Entrepreneur Jay Blades is at Altrincham recycling centre in Greater Manchester, where he’s searching the boots for potential loot. Assisting Jay in his mission to rescue, revamp and rehome four pieces of skip-bound junk are designer-maker Sarah Peterson, blacksmith Kev Paxton and clockmaker Paul Parry.

Sarah gets to grips with old lampshades, while Kev is tasked with transforming some piling metal. Paul tries to update an old radio, while Jay bags himself some windbreaker poles.
