The Repair Shop bear restoration leaves viewers emotional
Camilla explained to Amanda and Julie how her mum Linda had passed down the teddy bear to her after she was gifted it as a child.
She explained: “He was with her throughout her childhood, and then when I came along, he was always kept in my room. And he’s just sort of been a continuum throughout my mum’s life and my life.”
Camilla went on to say: “It’s always just been the two of us since I was six months old, and she was a very special woman.”
