The Repair Shop star Will Kirk has shared a very exciting update on the heartwarming BBC show in a new video posted on Instagram.
The woodwork expert revealed that the programme is gearing up to film the Christmas special and has opened casting for festive treasured items and heirlooms in need of restoration.
In a video shared to the BBC show's official Instagram page, Will addressed viewers whilst donning a Santa Claus hat. "Ho, ho ho! Well, it's not really Christmas yet but it will be soon," he began.

It seems as though fans aren't quite ready to get into the festive spirit, however, with many taking to the comments section saying that it's too early to think about Christmas.
One person wrote: "Oh too early for me! Haven't had my summer holiday yet!" while another added: "Too early to think about that Will."
Will isn't the only Repair Shop cast member to share an exciting update on the show, however. Host Jay Blades took to social media on Thursday to reveal that filming for the latest season is currently underway.

In the clip, Jay revealed how exactly the show is filmed, explaining that the camera crew use six cameras to pick up various shots, including the details on the restored items brought into the barn. See what he said in the video below.
The update comes after no new episodes of the show were aired last week. Instead, BBC One broadcast coverage of Wimbledon 2023.
Sadly, fans will have to wait a little longer for a new episode to air as next week [Wednesday 20 July], the BBC will broadcast a previous episode from season four, which will run for just half an hour.

What's more, organ expert David Burville also reassured viewers that more episodes were on the way in a post to his Instagram account.
Sharing a black-and-white selfie from the iconic barn at The Weald and Downland Living Museum earlier this month, he wrote: "Hello everyone. Hope [you're] having a good weekend. Been very busy at work but I will be back in the barn soon with some new exciting and unusual items."
