I haven’t watched it yet so can’t comment. The Repair Shop is a U.K. tv programme on Quest and if you’re UK based you should be able to get it on catch up.

They did an Irvin on there back along, don't think it was a Coastal Command, did a lovely job to the leather and the stitching, then put a YKK zip in it.
Yes the zip upset me too - they could at least have slipped the old AM puller onto the chain.

Just saw this; my 10 year old daughter watches it. RAF Coastal Command Irvin. Zip was shot and they used a YYK for the replacement. They did a real nice job patch a hole in the shoulder.

I saw it a few weeks ago in the US. I wanted to create a thread about it but couldn’t find the link! IIRC they swapped the zippers for YKKs but could be wrong.
