Random musings and general banter.

Fair play to Alex and Joe on tonights show, I have no complaints on the pitches and feel they are doing a decent job of presenting, far and above Simon's bizarre OAP patter/1970s gags, and Masons cocksure nonsense patter and deluded price comparisons.

IW should sign them up to more.

And as far as Im concerned the king size heated blanket is a genuinely good deal, I bought one earlier.
 
The only good presenters I have seen on there were Simona, Rob and Heather and Ali to a degree.

I did like Simona

I remember one weekend late show she was reading out texts.

A viewer sent in a text and at the end of it said something about "a happy ending" and as she'd read it out I think she twigged what she had just said.

Thank you guys for the support, I did mention the forum and I will again on Xmas day when I’m on.
Everyone approached things differently and for me - I think it’s important to acknowledge as there is a large community here that watch the channel.
I have to say - as fun as tonight was it is hard work to keep the energy up and keep everything fresh and new. Joe was great as there is an art to doing that for 4 hours straight :).

For me - it’s trying to find a balance of talking to new customers that are switching over and looking what is selling but also being aware of regular viewers who are watching / buying and engaging with them as well.

But I had fun - and as a member of this forum it’s been nice to step out tonight and then on Xmas day to have a go as being front of house at the shop! Some items are better than others, everything can’t be fantastic / amazing so it’s just finding the right balance from what people will want and not want. :)
One of My favourite items was the wooden tea light holder!! My other half didn’t like it at all! 😂.
Anyway - Xmas day we are live so I will be saying hello again and merry xmas. I take on board any feedback above as well and some I will disagree with, other bits will help me in the future.
Thanks for the banter, Captain Knowles will live to fight another day out of the trenches! Then it’s back to pillows, mattresses and bedding for me. Cheers everyone. 👍

Happy Christmas, Alex, to you and your family. What I have liked about your involvement with the Forum is you take both negative and positive criticism in good and constructive part. Actually engaging and particularly as yourself, breaks down barriers and encourages debate. The wrong approach is the ‘DON’T READ IT’ one which was actually expressed on-air the other night. I appreciate you are being paid by IW and have to be reserved on certain issues. For what it’s worth, I think you would make an excellent full-time presenting addition if you wanted to go in that direction. Integrity is a quality unfortunately lacking at present in that area. You would add greatly to it. Thanks again for coming on here and facing comments, rather than just covertly mocking them.
