Time Scoop Hunter: The Timekeepers

Sawajima Yuichi—a time-traveling reporter working for Time Scoop Inc. Journeying through the ages, he gathers footage of people who didn't make it into the history books. This time, he meets some tokitaiko-uchi, who would let people know the time by striking a drum. Until the late 19th century, Japan used a seasonal time system: Day and night were each divided into six equal periods between sunrise and sunset. To stay accurate, the tokitaiko-uchi used incense clocks. In one castle, three of them worked in shifts, but when one suffers from night blindness, he finds himself in danger of losing his job. Watch Sawajima's report to see how things work out!

The Repair Shop

The Repair Shop is a workshop of dreams, where broken or damaged cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life.

Furniture restorers, horologists, metal workers, ceramicists, upholsterers and all manner of skilled craftsmen and women have been brought together to work in one extraordinary space, restoring much-loved possessions to their former glory.

Many of these items have incredible stories behind them and a unique place in history: from an accordion played in the Blitz by a woman who is now in her 90s, to a beautifully crafted clock made by a father who was completely blind; a Pinball machine that is currently being used as a kitchen counter, and a Davenport desk with its trademark fake drawers which fooled burglars - and their crowbar.

The Repair Shop is an antidote to our throwaway culture and shines a light on the wonderful treasures to be found in homes across the country.
