Will anybody buy the Lunokhod blue gold? see next months exciting episode

It's been on it's last legs for at least the last 7 months, so pretty sure it'll last another month at least.

I think most of them will still be available for a long time yet

Kev did say "This has been on a lot recently"

hahahahaha anyone see the end of the show? Kev says "you have to remember" then cuts without notice to a sports direct advert

Well there are still a couple of versions of the VEareOne watches still available on IW site so think you could be right with that prediction.

LMAO, Kev just got cut in mid flow for a Sportsdirect.com advert.

Also the Sports Direct ad was purely Sports Direct only with no Ideal World reference.

Plus an ad for Evans Cycles (Mike Ashley-owned)...I get a feeling this channel will be Frasers Direct TV within three months.

VE are back for another two hour show on Monday night, wonder what story will be given for the clearance prices for that show.

 

[harrytumkins]

Agreed those ads are obviously part of the package whatever that entails

They were so out of place in that break it looked like the channel had changed

 

[Jazzydrury]

Do Sports Direct make watches

From what i can see, for the injection of cash (Loan) they've given Sportsdirect (House of Fraser) part control of the company and have put whole of IW and all it's assets up as security if they are unable to repay that loan. So unless IW have a major turn around, then it's going to belong to the House of Fraser group before too long.

NO, they sell watches but don't make watches, neither do 90% of the watch brands on IW.

Vostok Europe is one of the few actual watchmaking (designing and assembling would probably be more accurate) brands on IW.

So that means IW/Sports Direct don't own the site/property but are only leasing it till 2027, i thought they owned it but obviously not.

So Sports direct took over the lease Oct last year, sub leasing it to IW, and only committed to leasing till 2027, when new owner will be free to do what they want with the property or lease it to whomever they want.

Doesn't sound like Sports Direct are committed to the long haul with IW in Peterborough, seeing as they're "contracted out of the Security of Tenure provisions of the 1954 Landlord & Tenant Act".

Of course new owner could simply agree a further lease with Sports Direct after 2027, but could also tell them to sling their hook.

So that's £2,025,000; the first of four Flexi's...

Of course the likelihood of Ideal World surviving until 2027 is about as remote as Kevski selling all of his Lunokhod watches this week therefore Ideal World will default on its rent payments and whoever owns the freehold will repossess the building. Though unless someone's desperate for warehouse space in Peterborough it's most likely going to a property developer if Frasers/Sports Direct doesn't want it (there's houses being built nearby).

How was there Room for 2 Channels and 2 Warehouses in that Building, shame no Caravan on that picture
