Presenters

Angeline selling this, waffled on about "people like wearing amber next to the skin because of its properties" and something about the way it formed retaining its "electricity":

This is Baltic stuff, subjected to intense heat & pressure treatment to prepare it for jewellery, so what utter BS. She followed this up by referring to the "old wives' tale about amber and babies". I guess you have the right to choose which BS suits the occasion

They've always spouted nonsense from time to time, but these days, the drivel they come out with is at an all-time high.

Tuned into QVC showing Faith and Brown Jewellery. Brand ambassador looks like the Geordie woman who used to be on Gemporia whose name escapes . Not sure if it is though as she doesn’t have a Geordie accent anymore. She looks a lot older and has a hairstyle that makes her look like Margot of the good life TV show.

Yes, that was Vicky Carr who used to present at Gemporia

 

[Battiola73]

Yes, that was Vicky Carr who used to present at Gemporia

Thank you. I just couldn’t remember her name. Wonder what happened to tge strong Geordie accent. Good job she’s not as shouty as she was as it’d have been bedlam with her and Chloe. Didn’t go much on the jewellery and a strange name Faith and Brown. Reminded me of Faith Brown who used to impersonate Margaret Thatcher. Maybe that’s why her hair looks similar

 

[Battiola73]

Oh dear, Visage is on. Is the presenter auditioning for a part in the Nutcracker or wanting to apply to the French Gendarmerie? Oh crappiola Lyndsay is now on. With Katti wearing that red blazer it’s like the ringmaster and Dumbo.

I think I’d better change my forum name to Bitchiola.

Thought Vicky was quite controlled, the prices, however, were way over the top!

She never had a Geordie accent. It was fake and put on.

She'd often speak 'Geordie' and then forget and pronounce words properly. One minute she'd say 'nor way', then 2 minutes later, she'd say 'no way'.

She was mocked by other presenters and staff for it regularly.

I think I only saw her on Jewellery Maker. There’re used to be another girl on there who spoke very nasally and had wiry hair. Never did find out her name but we called her Nasal Norah.

Nasally? Sounds like that may have been Rebecca Redican.

Another crap presenter. She left a while ago

that's why the conjunction of those two words was ringing a bell in the dark recesses of my mind.

Faith Brown, utterly bonkers madcap comedienne & singer big in the 70s (image 1)? She did do a Thatcher impression but, for me, it was Janet Brown who I remember from the 80s as Thatcher (image 2).

Yes I agree Janet Brown did a better impersonation but I think Faith Brown was funnier.

I looked her up and yes it is Rebecca Redican. I think I saw her once since then on a Crafters Companion YouTube thingy

I think it's her company

Can't watch it Kati is so cheesy the way she drapes herself on the set

I don't know who had the bright idea of moving Steph from Gemporia to Jewellery Maker, but they will lose one of their best presenters

Jess Foley's return is imminent apparently. A viewer messaged in last week asking when she's coming back, and the presenter (Angeline I think it was), said "in the Spring".

So Jess will return to her old slot (Steph's current slot) - and Steph will fill the gap left by Elena leaving JM.

Absolutely.

Was it worth her going? She could have stayed and birthed on DT's 'bed behind the desk' and saved a lot of trouble

Reminds me of El on JM. It seemed as soon as she'd had her baby(ies) she was back on screen. No 'real' chance to bond. I always thought that was why it was 'originally' 5 years before a kid went to school. Bonding with the parents and all that. No, 'giving them away' as soon as they are out. As it were.

Jesus wept, my only hope for this year was that Jess would take the full 12 months maternity leave but it seems that it wasn’t to be unfortunately.

I was hoping she'd take the maximum leave and then announce that she's not returning.

It's very hard to be a worse presenter than Lindsey Carr - but Jess Foley somehow manages to do it. Absolutely.

They did that with Jim Brooman too. They are full of 'bright' ideas.
They, whoever 'they' are, don't know their 'A' from their 'E'.
