Well, well, well Nigel May has joined HobbyMaker so that’s Hayley West and Nigel leaving C&C. Looking like crafters will be leaving C&C in the light of the recent changes. Serves them right to put their friends in front of their customers.

I wonder what some of the presenters like Dawn Wheeler, Yannis etc think of their new colleagues past presenting record? Hayley West jumped ship to HobbyMaker very recently, perhaps she did not like the way things were going. Some of the craft companies on C&C lost lots of money when Julian...

You can watch the shows on C&C Extra on your laptop going back - e.g. Saturday July 8th is still available though of course the company hadn’t started throwing all the ex IW stuff at us then. No need to record.

I think you will find that Sara has been designing and producing for many years now and was on QVC before they kicked craft into touch and before Amanda Holden or Alison Cork were twinkles in QVC’s eye. She’s worked hard to build up her business and it is big in the US as well as here. I admire...

I had been wanting to see a demo of one of the machines they were selling from LAB to compare with something on TJC but every time I recorded a show that it was supposed to be on and fast forwarded through to get to the bit I wanted , it was never shown, very disappointing as there wasn’t a...

They are going to lose some of their C&C customers if they carry on with this load of tosh being shown on the Craft Channel as I am not interested in their ‘Healthier Choices’ or in Dean Wilson talking himself up instead of allowing the guests to talk through their demos instead of having to...

I think you will find that crafters are over paisley card and sticking giraffes on cardboard zoos and in fact have a concentration span longer than a goldfish nowadays.

Hochanda/ Create & Craft old customers paying for this ‘new’ channel as email from C&C tells me my old Hochanda Freedom p&p of £5.97 per month will go up to £10 in August and I won’t be buying enough to justify that every month. I’ve bought some craft stuff from HobbyMaker which was delivered...

Not all viewers are welcoming Dean back full time with open arms as is it less about crafting and more about the life of Dean.

Some have landed on C&C - Joe, Sean and Dean have had shifts.

Hasn’t Joe had a spell on Crafters Companion TV ? He will be know what it’s about on C&C. Also Jodie ( Tonic) started off in catering didn’t she.

Lindsey back on this week’s show selling a Leeds City v Man Utd football programme from way back when, original cost 1 penny. Beginning to get fed up of the same bidders back each week. Some of them have been on TV shows like Four Rooms - Andrew Lamberty, Jeff Salmon, Pearl Lowe…

I think Natalia is mentioned in another TJC thread which might give you some answers Keepingitreal. Which device did you buy?

Yes, I’ve seen several on other auction type shows and last night’s show had the Pimlico Plumber bidding. Lindsey sold Saddam Hussain’s alleged fork and a sort of fairground/ WW2 USA training aeroplane in Episode 2.

Lindsey Gundersen was one of the auctioneers on the Channel 4 programme ‘The Greatest Auction’ last night. AJ Odudu was the host.

It’s just as well that we don’t all craft or the card shops would go out of business but I would much rather receive a handcrafted card made to reflect me than shop bought. I don’t make to sell , I make for the pleasure of creating something that is all about that family member or friend and has...

The original Gemini was supposed to never need an upgrade and when CC brought out their foiling machine they made a big thing of how the Gemini had been built with this in mind etc so I was a bit surprised to see a new version was about to launch. I have had a look at a couple of comparison...

Grossly overweight presenters were Alan and Barry , best forgotten.

She has tried very hard to get involved in the crafting , to be fair to her.

Now Dave Bradford is back at C&C I have my fingers crossed that he will resume the voice overs for that channel. I hate the Paul Becque ones , Dave is much better.
