Gabbling presenters

[ERICS MUM]

Eyelid will often stay quiet and then talk over the BA during the last words of his/her presentation. Very annoying. I don't think she's really listening to the BA.

No she doesn’t listen. On several occasions she’s asked a question about a point the BA has already covered. Sloppy.

Why do we need brand ambassadors AND presenters anyway? Surely it would be cheaper to employ just one of them?

 

[Bea Frugal]

I totally agree mina. Brand ambassadors used to be few and far between and stuck to one brand so we tended to think they knew their stuff. Now it’s like going to the zoo - far too many wannabees gabbling and squawking and cackling. It was so much better before and cheaper too.

It's the "Lifestyle experts" that get me!! For example, the posh blond who flogs "amazing" Kelly Hoppen stuff one minute and the next is a garden expert!! Then there's loud , bad taste in clothes Lorna Ko whose an "expert" in flogging anything shoved under her nose. Then there's the lovely man who sells the binoculars , now that's an expert! As is the lovely lady selling Le Cruiset! And to top it all we now have expert Gill Gauntlet flogging Easyio!!!

Just to remind everyone - guess who's paying for all these excess people? Us. So why doesn't QVC leave it to each brand to choose who they want to flog their stuff, whether it be a specialist ambassador or one of their own? It would save them and us money and nobody would be less informed if the right person was chosen - eg I'd prefer Carla to Kim any day and they'd save on flights to and from Canada.

I think nearly all the presenters are now guilty of talking far too fast AND FAR TOO LOUD. They talk over the BA's who then shout as well to try and be heard. I find myself turning the sound down all the time and sometimes turning it off completely. Jilly is about the only one I can listen to of late and she's hardly ever on when I watch.

Jill Franks talks over everyone and talks mostly about herself

 

[Stockton]

I wish people would yse names so I can relate to who you're talking about. I don't kniw who "eyelid" is or who someone said was Irish, someone else said she's Scottish. Who the heck are you talking about, names please

Was me who said Irish but you try remembering or even spelling a name like that

I know people complain about water companies but I doubt they have any outfall pipes that pump out more effulent than Chloe Everton on an hourly basis. There's something seriously wrong with that girl.

Maybe she loses her unpleasant QVC persona when she gets home to her family. She has two little children to care for, so I hope there's nothing really wrong with her except for her bad selling technique.

Oh I don't doubt she's a wonderful mother, she has the mindset of a toddler. Being a television presenter is the only viable job she could ever have. There's no way she could actually hold down a real job in the real world.

 

[ERICS MUM]

As with all the presenters and BAs we can only comment on their presenting styles. For me that includes the product info they give us, the personal chit chat that adds very little, mumbling, speaking too fast, talking over the guest. Also not being prepared about on-air items, excessive hand/arm gestures, silly gurning or other exaggerated facial expressions and how they are dressed.

That’s my starter for 10. If I feel any of these mannerisms are detracting from the presentation of items I’m interested in, I will comment.

Have to switch off when Gill Gauntlet is on.

Mr CC calls Gill Gauntlett "Mrs Tat" as she's an expert on everything that you never knew you needed. Homestyle experts are ridiculous, we're far more experts of what we need in our own homes. The Anouska woman is a bit over the top for QVC but she's nice enough. I much preferred that man that used to demo KH. QVC got rid of a lot of their true experts, Jilly Jones for one, she knew her stuff. Also Simon Brown.

As we’ve often said before, most of them are just jobbing actors. Nina shows up on adverts (the one she says she’s 50!) one whose name I don’t know had a part in the tv series The Bay, and good old Evey shows up on adverts flogging second hand (sorry, pre loved) bags and jewellery. Perhaps she’ll start a dating agency and deal a few pre loved men! She seems to have tried everything else !

They've got to earn a crust. Some of them want cheese with that, so they will sell anything as long as they seem sincere about it. A thing that gets my goat about Gauntlet is that she owns it all - sometimes two of them.

Can’t stand the way she says “oh gosh” all the time and she slurps between her over enthusiastic words

Only the 2nd of January and i'm already sick to death of seeing/hearing Eyelid Naarn...they need a new year clear-out at QVC.

"Posh blonde" was on in the last hour...i'd like to add "smug" to her repertoire.

I think I can safely add Kabler to that growing list... #InaneJibberJabberGalore
