Pye Black Box refurb - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I'm new to the forum and have just acquired a Pye Black Box record player. It's complete and looks to be in good condition but there is no sound. I'm no expert so looking for someone who can check and repair it. Ideally based in SW London. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

There are many versions of the Black Box and none are particularly easy to repair. Which version do you have?
