Thanks Folks for yet another superb episode and restoration project, the owners of these craft and machines are always so very grateful and it is quite moving for some I am sure. Well done, another one under the belt, here's for many more to come!

One thing they didn't mention, was vaguely hinted at but never stated. The Massey Shaw was one of the 'little ships' at Dunkirk.

I did not see Claire mike the rod and main crank journals. Are we to assume that all of them were perfectly round and smooth after all those years of service? And what about the bores? Were those free of any scoring and still nice and round? How about the pistons and rings as well as the wrist pins? All that work to RE and RE that engine, only to end up with a half-ass rebuild. And look how badly the other engine smokes. I bet that one burns a quart of oil per hour.

I don't think the talent actually did much of the work in that series, beyond television production work.

This was a great program. Suggs was terrible arrogant and lazy. But the workers were great

Biggest fire for a hundred years? One forgot about the little blaze in 1666.

A little sum for you Davey: What is 1935 (date of Colonial Rubber fire) less 100 years ? However, the original claim might founder unless it was larger than the Tooley Street fire of 1861 which famously claimed the life of James Braidwood, the superintendent of the London Fire Engine Establishment. The fire led directly to the foundation of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade under Braidwood's sucessor Capt.Sir Eyre Massey Shaw. Originally the fireboat Massey Shaw was operated alongside an earlier craft, the fireboat James Braidwood ! Incidentally just as a stereotypical soldier was named Tommy Atkins and a sailor Jack Tar. the firemen were known as Jim Braidys.
