    TJC 'Fake Sincerity' Mark isn't my cup of tea AT ALL but at least he sells products. His fake hysterical laughter at things Papa 'Uncle Albert' Gamages Fields says is reminiscent of someone desperately trying to please their boss at all costs but ends up being faker than Ideal World's RRP's...

    Indeed TJC at this very moment looks uncannily like Ideal World apart from the better presenters and presentation, but that may not last forever of course. And looking at TJC right now, why didn't IW ever use their backdrop TV screen to show a rolling presentation of the current product as what...

    According to Jonathan the Earnshaw Tourbillon (stop sniggering at the back) is "slowly made by master watch makers" hence why there are "so few of them". (Exactly how slow and by whom wasn't specified.) Plus Shaun is "not being funny but" again. Oh mate YOU ARE NEVER BEING FUNNY. EVER. Also...

    They've waited approx. 49 minutes tonight but it's finally back: the blue Lunokhod 2! 'Single figures' according to Simon Peters (very very allegedly). Incidentally all the latest Vostok Europe watches I've noticed just have the VE logo as opposed to 'Vostok Europe' on them, perhaps further...

    Quite interesting and there were useful comparisons between cooking methods especially in terms of energy usage. However it was disappointing that they only properly tested three air fryers against each other even if they used other air fryers as part of different comparisons. And now it's Simon...

    Plus I'm wondering whether certain presenters at IW are currently on their best behaviour as talent scouts could be watching them and/or presenters wanting good clips to use in a showreel for other broadcasters; case in point being Shaun Crawley who was surprisingly informative when recently...

    Ideal's woes must be an open secret within the industry and I'm guessing other shopping TV channels must have received a fair few CVs from Ideal World employees by now. I think TJC might take a punt on Peter Simon but certainly not QVC of course.

    Oh no it's YATW (Yet Another Tourbillon Watch) time with a Nubeo (don't laugh) Ltd Edition (until the next time) Manta. Ideal World Price £1499.99 (yes, really. We need to escape the clutches of bankruptcy somehow). *picks jaw off the floor* Imagine the conversation: "Jonathan, Ideal World is...

    Even many of the items that don't seem to feature on-screen anymore can often be found on their website such as treadmills (Remember when every other show was about treadmills? There's probably a huge warehouse somewhere full of unsold treadmills), though Jane Plan products from Ideal World are...

    People have said that you always get the best bargains from a company that's about to go bust as they desperately try to get people to shop with them regardless of the money. (Also IW are/were selling an air fryer £30 cheaper than John Lewis and there's no way they could have made money on that...

    There are security gates to prevent the unwashed (Ideal World's customers) from entering the site without permission (or at least without being noticed), which is clearer on Google Street View...

    There's a drone video linked to earlier in this thread (don't worry it isn't Peter Volauvent) and here's the best view of the garden area I could extract from it:

    So that's £2,025,000; the first of four Flexi's... Of course the likelihood of Ideal World surviving until 2027 is about as remote as Kevski selling all of his Lunokhod watches this week therefore Ideal World will default on its rent payments and whoever owns the freehold will repossess the...

    Also the Sports Direct ad was purely Sports Direct only with no Ideal World reference. Plus an ad for Evans Cycles (Mike Ashley-owned)...I get a feeling this channel will be Frasers Direct TV within three months.

    When Ideal World ('When' not 'If') goes bankrupt again I honestly think the Ideal World brand (or 'IW' as they seemed to be moving towards) will be dead and buried otherwise without major changes it would be falling down the same trapdoor again. And nobody wants to do that. So I'm guessing that...

    Saw him presenting an electric bike show only yesterday (it could have been a repeat though) and he actually did a decent job of things, pointing out how battery life can vary depending on terrain, weight, etc.; something mainly ignored by other presenters I've seen (though I don't often see...

    Been watching for a short while and their website has apparently been up and down like their fake stock levels (haha), though what was interesting was Kevski reminiscing about the early days of Vostok Europe with Ideal World and years ago there was a "Red Square" watch where a square got redder...

    Or the same old story of previous orders that somehow didn't go through the system. Though I've just switched on Ideal World and there's currently a scrolling message saying "We are currently experiencing issues with our website and contact centre - please check back later to be able to order"...
