Thanks for the info on Scranton Lace. I googled to find out where the episode might be airing - to no avail. I'd love to see it because I find factories fascinating. A lace factory is chocolate frosting on the cake.

A group of people go into abandoned buildings to salvage whatever they can. This particular episode was about the Scranton Lace Company in Pennsylvania, which was in business for 105 years and claimed to be the world's largest producer of 'Nottingham' Lace. Some of the lace machines are from the 1890s. (I regret I didn't see the programme myself, but I will be looking out for it.)
