My washing machine is making horrible noises, like there's a bearing that's shot or something. It crunches like a knackered headset when you turn it by hand, and sounds like it's going to explode when it's spinning.

I'm hoping it's repairable rather than a throwaway - has anyone got a recommendation for a repair chap in West London?

My last washing machine noise turned out to be a junior hacksaw blade (!) trapped in the tight bend of the drain/sump and was dragging along the outside of the drum. Worth checking just in case it's something similar as a potentially easy fix?

I've fished out more than my fair share of bra underwires from washing machines over the years.

You can definitely tell the difference between that and a bearing.
