there's zero reviews for it so cant imagine anyone is buying, who wants to faff about with the huge pipe out of the back and hassle leaving windows open and sticking the pipe out of a window, for a British climate.....not many of us. Truth is, its not very practical for most people.
 
On Presenters going to other channels, Nigel May has announced he is leaving Create and Craft on Thursday, says he is leaving TV, and spending more time with his family in Brighton, but who knows he may turn up somewhere

Have a idea Nigel started off at ideal World

I find it strange that at 8pm they are showing repeat hours

Saves money. There are quite a few shows where they don't require new shows with live presenters. Never seen the economics, especially when you're losing money, of producing new live shows and paying for presenter and guest when showing the same products ad nauseam, just show repeats.

Okay some products it's harder to do that with, but a lot of stuff on IW could be one live show then repeat it till stock runs out.
 
Seriously- how on earth does Peter Van Vindscreen motivate himself to go over that wretched furniture time and time again. He was on ‘live’ this morning apparently doing it, and here he is again this evening doing it again. What possible job satisfaction can you get from repeating the same act two or three times a day? He must be desperate is all I can think. And oh, Ryan, you do that emotional sales spin so poorly, you really do.

Proto-Col/Elizabeth Grant jumped the IW ship to the Q - has anyone heard the reason why?a
Click to expand...

Could be a number of reasons, but guessing I would say IMO.

1.QVC offered the brands better financial terms & security than IW, better terms/more sales/more profit with a longer term future.
2.QVC have a bigger existing customer & potential customer base, increased sales for brands.
3.QVC aren't on the verge of bankruptcy again, both are creditors from the previous IW bankruptcy (EG £55,000 - & Proto-col £112,000)
4.QVC are a more respectable company, leads to a more positive public image for the brands being involved with QVC than with shysters at IW.

and so on..........

Doubt very much that anybody working for IW is in it for job satisfaction, must just be the money.
It's an easy gig, play the part of a product expert (no actual qualifications or experience in products needed) and learn basic scripted details of product adding in some personal made up nonsense and repeat as many times as needed.
 
A lot of regular lines have disappeared from on-air selling at least. Reconditioned phones were a regular - not seen one in months. They focused so much on technology previously that they actually had an in-house technology expert which they used on a regular basis. They no longer have that. Rug Doctor? Again - haven’t seen that recently. Vacuum cleaners? Not many of those either. The tubby guy who used to demonstrate that kind of gear also appears to not appear much now. Very little online technology presentations that I can see these days if at all. Is it purely down to them shuffling around the stuff that they want to shift based on the season of the year I.E. Do they think people will be in the garden and not hoovering the carpets? Riding around on electric bicycles and not making phone calls? Or is there a more sinister reason commercially? Perhaps that a number of the lines that they used to sell on a regular basis have had issues behind-the-scenes with historical payment problems to creditors, and therefore they can’t obtain those lines of goods any longer? Who knows? Nobody knows with Ideal World.
