Getting to work first is upholsterer Sonnaz, who has an appointment with Leigh from London. Leigh has brought in a tatty leather armchair with a request that this once luxurious seat can be transformed.

The pair met in Greece, where Leigh describes falling instantly for Greg, who then moved to the UK so the smitten couple could be together.
