If I flick onto IW and Foghorn Sally is presenting, the TV is turned over as fast as my fingers on the remote allow. I can almost feel the TV speakers buzzing as they become overloaded with her nails down the blackboard screeching.
Yes, Holby City and Hollyoaks. How the mighty are fallen.I just flit in and out of selly telly nowadays, but I caught a new (new to me anyway) IW presenter called Jeremy.
Unless I'm mistaken, didn't he used to be an actor with a rather high profile?
Mr Bean would've been an improvement over Mark Stewart.Positives? Rob, Heather and Simona. Although the latter seems to have disappeared, all three are relaxed and come over as honest sellers, avoiding the relentless BS hysteria of the others in the main. Joe the Chef. A decent and extremely personable manner, and other than John and Paul from the previous versions, far and away a culinary improvement on the last bloke. One or two more branded products have appeared of late and you can only hope that trend continues to increase on new premises.
Yes - thoroughly agree on the addition of Annie to the positives.Mr Bean would've been an improvement over Mark Stewart.
I'll add Annie to the positives. It is a real shame that Simona has vanished and Heather has been reduced to being a model (nothing against that, think she can just offer much, much more to the channel in a presenting role) yet relics like Jacks, Dirty Peter and Disingenuos Gen and her ever changing accent remain.
The return of Peter Vol-au-vent is a big negative for me and as I've said previously, can think of no reason whatsoever why he would be brought back, bar pressure from his wife. Bleeding Opatra crap spilling over from the morning show and infiltrating other hours is another negative.
he is definitely the main IW man, at least you get a bit of humour and charm to his shows but is sadly right up there on the massive bs stakes, 'best ive evahhh brought to air' and 'sellout city' and 'you must check out yer baaarskets' Yawn.Stick Mason on QVC, with their stricter, more PC driven way of how you sell, he would actually be rather good.
They were selling the opatra baldness cap and he was telling Natalia that he is proud to be bald but the only thing that worried him when he decided to shave it all off is whether 'the goddess' would still find him attractive. I think that is an endearing quality for sure. But he doesn't half come off with some shyte (when putting on the hard sell)Does his ‘Goddess’ still get a mention nowadays?
