Did anyone else catch the "fook off you" on the reviews shown onscreen during the show with the firetrap clothing?
Usual Fields tripe..Mann Egerton watches? Is this a joke? I used to get my Renault 21 serviced at the Northampton branch in the late 1980s. I do recall though, even there was a girl serving there already, another girl from the service department always used to come out from round the back smiling at me, every time I went in. I was too shy to find out why. Maybe it was my comedy limp..limp what… Anyway, as far as I was aware, they went bust not long afterwards? Why on earth would they want to resurrect a defunct and pretty bog standard car dealership name for more cheap and nasty watches from presumably China? The ‘expert’ looks like he was picked up from the local bus shelter to get out of the rain for an hour. Cue the Christmas cracker complimentary pen no doubt.
Basically the same models they flog as Gamages and Swan & Edgar with a different name and supposed history and heritage attached....They look so tacky. It’s akin to the Emperor’s New Clothes listening to this bigging them up bullshit. No mention, of course, that there is absolutely no connection whatsoever to the original company. I mean..why would they? They can come out with any old rubbish unchecked and unpunished.
He makes seem Simon Peters sweet and tolerable.I agree about Craig he is full of himself, that Pie show yesterday especially, it times it felt uncomfortable, it began when Lynn the guest, gave him a Real Pie Company pinny she bought down with her for him, it felt like he was trying to get some freebies, he was bordlerline Creepy, he asked her if she was married, she said recently, he said would he be watching, and she said he was out fishing, he said ooh good for that
He is nearly as bad as Peter in ways,
Amazingly never thought I would have this view also, its like Old Pedro Simone has been about with his act for so long we know the game with him and he knows the game with us but this new shopping TV diva is only starting out and in relative terms cant see him lasting anywhere as long as old Pedto has!He makes seem Simon Peters sweet and tolerable.
It's certainly a weird choice for a watch brand that a good number of people aged 40+ (myself included) would associate with car dealerships regardless of the company's past engineering exploits, and in turn subconsciously correlate those watches with the tacky gifts they would often give away with car purchases, especially when another chunk of that same demographic would be more likely to impulse buy a tacky watch from a TV shopping channel. Obviously there couldn't have been a Mann Egerton dealer anywhere near where the Fields family lived otherwise that idea would have been binned off before reaching production, plus it's also interesting that Mann Egerton watches now seem to be confined to late evening slots possibly because they hadn't sold as well as the others. D-, must try harder.Mann Egerton watches? Is this a joke? I used to get my Renault 21 serviced at the Northampton branch in the late 1980s.

If he can be an expert in rattan furniture then I'm am expert in Cadbury's Dairy Milk and Prosecco (not necessarily in that order)Van der Valk is now sitting with Corden. An expert in rattan furniture is some responsibility to bear. I assume it’s taken him many years to reach that pillar of responsibility in the shopping community? That with all his other ‘expertships’ at the channel. Incredible. Thank God..Chef Joe has arrived with a crème egg custard pie to shove in Corden’s smug mug.

And so many names from that disastrous opening night have disappeared, seemingly without trace now…The Channel is 23 years old next Monday, haven’t heard if they are going to celebrate or not
