It's infected television news as well. In fact, I think QVC got it from watching Sky, as Eamonn Holmes says things before and after the breaks like "don"t go away now". The Beeb has got its newsreaders flirting with the public too, "come back to us soon" before switching to the regional news.. Q has always had pretensions to be 'proper telly', so probably thinks that's the way to behave.
And I agree with all posters above. When I go to a dentists' or other waiting room, it drives me wild when someone fifty years younger than me greets me with my Christian name. I am tempted to say "The name is Grumpy, MISS Grumpy".
