The Repair Shop: Jay Blades tells Steve Fletcher to ‘relax’

Steve Fletcher often works his magic fixing people's beloved heirlooms on the BBC's The Repair Shop. Steve works alongside his sister Suzie, who is an expert in leather.

The third-generation horologist runs the Clock Workshop in Witney, Oxfordshire, following in the footsteps of his grandfather who set up his own shop in 1910. His business was passed down to Steve's father and after qualifying in the business, Steve took over himself.

He regularly services clocks his grandfather and father worked on before him. Recalling his favourite item on The Repair Shop to date, he said: "I find most of the clocks reasonably straightforward forward but one that sticks out is the Beliard clock which became a bit of a nightmare.

"It had had a bash and then we couldn’t get a correct type of mainspring so it took much longer than expected but once completed, it turned out really well and was a cracking clock."

Here is all you need to know about Steve's life off-screen, including his partner and children.

Steve lives in Witney with his long-term partner, Mel, and Steve thanked Mel for encouraging him to sign up for The Repair Shop.

He said: "In 2016 I received an email from a company that I hadn't heard of asking if I would be interested in taking part in a brand new show.

"Not trusting anything that is on the internet, I nearly deleted it and would have done if my partner, Mel, hadn't stopped me saying that it all looks ok."

Mel sometimes features on Steve's Instagram grid, and back in April he shared a series of snaps and videos from an Easter weekend.

He explained: "I was in my local town of Witney playing the sax and having a brilliant time with good friends, then Mel and I decided to blow the cobwebs away with a hike up Pen y Fan in the Brecon Beacons."

As for his children, he has a brood of five - a son called Fred and four daughters Amelia, Milly, Nicole and his youngest, whose name isn't known.

Fred and Milly both work in Steve's clock shop, while Amelia is a social media influencer. His youngest daughter has graduated from Oxford Brookes University.

He paid tribute to his children on Father's Day, sharing a photo of himself with three of his daughters. He also revealed he has two grandsons.

The Repair Shop airs on BBC One on Wednesdays at 8pm
