    They are having a giraffe, surely. (Don't call me shirley)

    I felt like I was watching Del Boy and Rodney, the pair were going at it with the sales patter...everything but 'Roll-up, roll-up...I'm not giving you it for £1000, I'm not giving you it for £500, I'm giving it away for £369.96.. They were doing my head in. The sales patter is getting so...

    Where are Debbie Greenwood & Julian Ballantyne?

    I notice a lot of new, young very pretty models in shows now. I think this is a good thing. I'd love to see some replacements for certain presenters that have been built in with the bricks. Mwa ha ha....(stroking villainous moustache). Out with the old, in with the new.

    I am a Q holic (or was!)

    I can sympathise, Cathy, I've got a lot of 'easy pays' I'm paying off. Almost there...keep saying to myself 'NO MORE' but then I watch and see something I really want and I'm off again. I'm really happy with my purchases, though. Loving my steam generator iron and Dyson heater/fan. I bought...

    172 quid for a windchime!

    In her defence she is a business woman, she's not forcing anyone to buy her products. There must be market for it. I don't like any of her items but if someone likes them they're free to spend their money how they like.

    Victoria Wood sketch

    I think it might be this one from French & Saunders? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/OA7WurKKScQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Where are Debbie Greenwood & Julian Ballantyne?

    Nobody's irreplaceable, I don't think I'd miss any of the presenters including Debbie Greenwood and Julian Ballantine (who I met at an event day and thought he was a nice bloke). I think too many of the presenters think they are in with the bricks...Alison Young. It's the buyers who are the...

    Museum of London jewellery

    The reproduction of the pieces was badly done, in my opinion. The dimensions were wrong, the metals were wrong and the colours were wrong. I've never bought them but at least the 'Jacqueline Kennedy' collections are accurate simulations using synthetic stones and the prices are much easier to...

    Marie Francoise.

    Guest/sales ambassador/ whatever...the ONLY reason they are there is to push sales, it's a strategy to hook people into making purchases. I could talk for hours on anything if I was paid, doesn't make me an expert.

    Presenters who do too much of the talking

    For viewers the premise that the guest is there to inform and advise is all smoke and mirrors...it's a sales ploy. The name of the game is to shift stock. It is and always will be about money and profit. If the QVC presenter aka sales rep can shift more stock by jumping in with the usual hard...

    Yankee TSV 26/8/13

    Candles aren't a priority when you're hard up. With the economy still so fragile I guess QVC may find scented candles harder to shift than when people were more affluent. I don't buy so many jars as I used to and prefer the wax melts especially when they're on promotion in my local 'Hallmark'...

    Yankee TSV 26/8/13

    If you pull the wick out of a sampler from the bottom, you can then chop them into four or six cubes, these can then be used in a tart burner as a small tart. This means you can mix them with other fragrances without using a sampler holder. I keep the ones I'm not using in separate, plastic...

    I need you on those phones

    I hadn't missed Debbie Greenwood, all the presenters are totally replaceable, in my opinion.

    I need you on those phones

    I was unfortunate enough to catch a presentation this morning with Claire Sutton, she seems to be even more over the top with the gushing than usual. Seems the sword of Damocles might be hovering over all the presenters making their sales patter even more desperate. Not great for viewing...

    Amica the Beautiful Model

    Such sad news, I will miss her. She was a beautiful woman and had so much living still to do. I feel so sad for her young family.

    Jill Franks you are out of line.

    You could be right, Ben Frugal. The launch of a new TSV used to be a closely held secret and the anticipation was quite something when it was a really good brand, but now it's just, meh...whatever, and as you say, if it's JF I don't bother at all. I did think, though, that there was a bit of...

    JF current blog at QVC

    I have been reading some of the comments posted on JF's recent blog...they are typically sycophantic praising her courage and gorgeous body (my teeth hurt it's so sugary) and this one caught my eye...OMG! thank you jill for your wonderful story you are an inspiration to us all. I had a very...

    Jill Franks you are out of line.

    I can't understand how Jill Franks manages to get so many high status slots when she is clearly so unpopular with the viewers. The more negative the feedback the more determined QVC seem to be ramming her down our throats. She seems to get an awful lot of TSV launches and popular brand...

    JF current blog at QVC

    So sorry to hear about your Mum, Tiddlywinks. I do not feel presenters should be on TV if they are ill. I agree JF looks the picture of health and although she is stick thin, she will be the last man standing at QVC, it seems it will take more than poor health to get her off our screen.

    Morphy Richards Steam Generator Iron TSV 27/7/13

    They may correct the details before midnight, but I was impressed by the sterling sliver and rhodium plating on the iron till I realized the wrong details had been posted and it was for a Lisa Snowdon item of jewellery. It wasn't till I read there was the equivalent of 0.13c of simulated blue...

    JF current blog at QVC

    Why is she still racking up every hour she can at QVC if she thinks she's so ill? Personally I think her GP got it right... panic attacks following a bad experience behind the wheel manifesting itself as physical symptoms. A question of acceptance. If you can't cope Mrs Franks, take a long...
