These aren't allegations ,these things actually happened .It was Will who mentioned the crown again and said he didnt know what happened to it.Maybe he doesn't know ,but it reminded people of what happened.

Isn't the charities commission for wrongdoing within the charity? It did cross my mind ,but don't think BCC have done anything wrong, and they appear to have sorted something out with Q.
People have plenty to say but not answering questions. Thank you Alan for explaining rather than attacking with posts which add absolutely nothing to the thread apart from unpleasantness. In an auction (and you see it on these tv programmes) people will try and buy something for as little as possible. The crown was bought for £1000. This in itself is not unusual if no-one else bid and pushed the price up. But What is unusual is that QVC advertised the auction and then viewers didn't get to bid. Stratobuddy has said that in the past he has bid successfully in a BCC auction for an expensive item so there wasn't a problem there. Alan has contacted the channel for clarification but if Q refuse to discuss the matter I don't see what people can do other than contact a consumer organisation to see if Q can be called to account. The best weapon of protest is to boycott the channel.
Postscript:
The crown was sold so in my view the matter is over and done with apart from suspicion and speculation and the question is rather than spouting, what do you want to do about it and what do you want to happen? The fact that Will doesn't know where the crown is means nothing. The auction was a while ago and he was probably out of the loop at that time. The crown was bought and there is no reason he should know who the buyer is. The fact that he 'wants it back' is perhaps a little tongue in cheek because it is not an item he can 'have back'. I can't imagine that an employee of QVC would be so stupid as to raise a matter that the channel would be horrified to see had been 'resurrected' if they had anything to hide. I would be interested to read members' SENSIBLE comments.
