I do wonder if Dean had already agreed to go back to C&C before Thursday, there vacancies, and he has always felt loved by the viewers, guests have said how happy they are to have him present there shows again
Yeah to all of thatHasn’t Joe had a spell on Crafters Companion TV ? He will be know what it’s about on C&C. Also Jodie ( Tonic) started off in catering didn’t she.

Just thinking about a Worst Ever Items Top Ten.... Probably a Top 100 is easily possible. But in anyone's IW Worst Top 10 has to be that cockney barrow boy type from The Apprentice and his 'magical' golf club..
Wonder if anyone ever actually checked out a basket in response to that relentless plea with the occasional ‘i dont want you to miss this opportunity’ chucked in for good measure or 70 percent sold answers on the back of a postage stamp.Thank you for your kind words and same back at you S C O, best wishes and good health , had many a laugh and serious moments reading & posting on here. Watching IW has been a real strange affair, the channel & presenters could evoke so many extreme emotions, one moment they would have you in fits of laughter with their sheer idiotic comments and behaviour to the next when you'd be utterly irritated and angered with them for spouting lies & misinformation or saying check out your baskets/gonna sell out for the 100th time in a show.
is his old man mr gamages and egg?Guest that's thick as mince selling cheap Chinese junk.
I give you............

Don’t go anywhere young Harry Im sure we will continue on here or a new thread, plus we need more content on your channelHave I missed anything?
Not had a chance to read the forum yet but will do later tonight
Firstly I have sympathy for anybody who loses a job
I have seen some snippets on social media from some of the presenters quotes including "profits over people"
and "I want to say a lot we have been told things but I can't"
Now I am sorry but Ideal World was a business, not a charity, it hadn't made money for a LONG time, and eventually, all the assets were stripped
because it has been in a dire state for a long time.
I am unsure if some of the presenters are deluded about the whole thing but lets remember it "was upgrade work" only weeks ago we were told and everybody on this thread knew that was highly likely to be utter rubbish. Being told to say it on air is one thing but believing it I do not buy for a moment.
A fair few have been here before and if this thread could see the end was nigh (we all thought it was a possibility months ago then it was a matter of when the last month) I personally do not believe the presenters thought all was good, in fact, that isn't possible.
I would love to know more about what the TJC "buying" the Freeview 22 from Ideal World a while back actually involved, I suspect as well as a cash injection for Ideal at the time it gave TJC some other benefits (the sudden influx of some Ideal product lines/suppliers) and even presenters who at the very least had an Ideal World connection.
This thread has been great and will be massively missed by me, all the best to everyone who has ever posted
Just had notification of another 3rd Buy Me Up episode from 22nd Mar 2008, with guest Rich Hall. Available for 28 days it says. Downloaded it.When I was catching up the hundreds of messages the other day, somebody said that there was a comedy on BBC Sounds called Buy Me Up, a send up of shopping telly, sorry can't remember who said it on here.
There's 2 episodes plus a pilot. They're not available for long, the pilot expires in 12 days. I heard the pilot and it was hilarious! Selling absolute tat and the presenters are ghastly. Will hear the rest this weeknd.
TjcThey're probably the worst watch brand on IW & TJC for spouting absolute ********. They're watches are overpriced and some of the lowest quality on shopping TV. They don't design or make anything they just pick from various options offered by the Chinese watch wholesalers like these folk.

This early model on IW they claimed took 6 months to design, hand assemble by their expert watchmakers, sold around the £120 mark.

In reality the watch didn't need 6 months to design as it already exist, Swan & Edgar just went to the Chinese watch wholesalers and picked the watch from a catalogue and added their branding.
You can get the same watch for £27 direct from China and that's retail not the much lower wholesale price that Swan & Edgar would be paying.
