Random musings and general banter.

Emma (alleged watch expert) on the Traser - "we've already sold out these twice today, these are the last 3 that have bounced back from baskets. It is so important to note that these were absolutely grabbed and gone very very quickly when it was launched earlier, very quickly indeed."

summary of the next bit of baloney from her.

But seemingly during the earlier show, Peter came banging on Emma's dressing room door (she points to the right at this point), all excited saying they had sold all the Traser out and he needed to phone Kevin for more, she heard him phone Kevin and got 8 more and they sold out as well and these are 3 that bounced back from baskets.


I don't know what show Emma is speaking about but it bears no resemblance to the show that featured on IW earlier.


Emma (alleged watch expert) also stated she's never, never seen self illumination (tritium tubes) in a watch before, this is the first watch she's ever seen it in, says loads of the viewers getting touch in saying they've never seen this in a watch before, she's also never seen a diver's slider adjuster on a bracelet before.

Really Emma, you and viewers have never seen Vostok Europe watches that have been sold on IW for years?

OR Luminox watches, Ball Watches, etc.

Lie after lie after lie. Or rearranging the truth as they would probably prefer it called.

Has anyone ever counted up the number of lies an Ideal World presenter typically tells in each one hour show? It must run into the hundreds especially when Pedro or Moronic Mike are on.

I know we try and make a joke about it here. And also on a more serious note, try and highlight these pieces of serious misinformation every time they occur. But really somebody in authority should be doing something about this channel and forcing them to change their ways. We appear to be the only people publicly holding them to account.

The latest trend appears to be that if a person tells 1 lie they are severely castigated, but if someone, for example a politician, tells 30 outrageous lies in 15 minutes then that is deemed perfectly acceptable.

Why does rubber lips continually recommend various beauty products as a treatment for edema? Edema should be investigated by a physician as a first port of call. Not by some piece of Chinese made plastic. She never makes any mention of also consulting with your GP first.

 

[Samki]

Roll up, roll up - see te latest in beauty elixirs and edema cure - moronic, perfidious, rubber lips and name drop Sal will be queuing up for this - or not

Look who's on with My name is Den!

When Den's presenting watches does she say 'and this watch can tell you the time from all four corners of the room!'

Presumably he is knocking them out cheaper than he does on TOTV does?

This is where they give themselves away with the bullsh1t and lies.

If viewers grabbed all of the stock quickly and put the watches on their baskets, how did three 'bounce back'? Surely if the viewers wanted them SO badly they would have completed the purchasing process? Or have we to assume three viewers didn't have sufficient funds to cover the first flexi?

They make amateur dramatics seem like the Royal Shakespeare Company

The next time, actually every time, you see them doing their routines about viewers being in, then out, then maybe in again ... think of this song

But surely Kevin was on his way to Switzerland wasn't he?

If you tell the truth you don't have to have a good memory. IW should have this mantra laminated and places all over the studio (also on the dingy broom cupboard with the bare 40 watt lightbulb that serves as their dressing room)

Hello, is this Peter Simon that I'm talking to?

Possibly.

Excuse me? Are you Peter Simon or not?

Probably.

Sorry, I don't mean to be rude however I need to speak with a Peter Simon, is that you?

It's possible that I'm probably Peter Simon, you're probably speaking to Peter Simon right now. Hello? Hello, are you still there?

I thought you were having a laugh, but you are right

He probably has to hang Herself’s extra larges on theirs - day after day after day…Now all the Milk Tray ads have dried up…

That was the forerunner to what in modern parlance is "community policing" where they hop in the car, drive along as quick as they can and head off back to their desks.

Too true, sadly. Today you can see all the crime being committed/dodgy goings-on from behind the wheel as you drive by - yeah, sure (not).

It should be renamed Pinocchio's World. I could see Captain Birdseye (sorry, I mean Mike) and Snake Oil Pete wearing the fetching leather shorts. Their catch phrase must surely then be 'we nose a bargain when we see one'.
