God help us shes the worse for the hard sell

 

[pdsalford]

I used to like Debbie Flint, but she's now incapable of letting someone else speak a whole sentence without interrupting them.

 

[caretodiffer]

She intimidates viewers, what with wagging finger and "don't leave buying this till later, buy it now"

 

[Swankypants]

I actually thought it was Howard 'Can I Just Say' Griffith you were talking about!

 

[Autumn]

Howard is such a pratt. Hes on the last chance tablet show and is saying about the 1/2 price event and saying them should move the poster so its in view of the camera, has he not realised that the item there actually showing isnt half price!!! its the joy tab while stock lasts again with 23% off not 50%, and tbh its always 199.99 anyway so not exactly a great deal

 

[Loveinamist]

Wow, Mr. OCD, you are a poss match for our resident literary genius, Mr.B.B. And you know you've made it when initials are only needed. :movie::up:

I completely agree with what you are saying. However please realise its under instruction of the producer as to every word he says.

 

[pdsalford]

I'm pretty certain it's not the producer's instructions that cause Jacqui Joseph to say wow at least every 30 seconds

If you've listened to any production meeting, or any live talkback (what goes into the presenters ear), you would understand.
I worked there, so I'm not "pretty certain", I am positive.

 

[pdsalford]

The producer may be telling jacqui to enthuse about a product, but no way are they telling them to repeat wow time after time.

I don't doubt you for a minute mate, It just makes them look insane and it's just something that gets on my nerves.
