Coming up Jezza in ladies PJs.....

They keep giving away these fragrances, must have got a job lot from a geezer down the pub.

That perfume is from the house of Peter Sherlock

I’m pretty sure no one is going to ask me to do it again either!!

At least you can add 'male model' to your CV

But, according to Beardy O'Mason, IW bought up all the gilets they could get - apart from the cheaper ones available elsewhere.
"People keep emailing - Mike, why don't you do the bigger sizes? Well we have gone and got them for you gang".

You can imagine Of-Masons striding into his local fake country pub in a wax gilet.

"Good evenung landlord, Lord Of-the-Masons will be having one of your finest flagons of laager, you have been so advised.
"Blimey squire, it's busy tonight. Loads of drinkers coming in, those pork scratchings will be flying out, and I mean flying out. I'm not surprised.
"Oh yes, here they come, Trevor, Robert, Gillian, Muriel, Enid, Clive, Anthony, loads of them......"

I suspect his and his goddess’s country clothing attire begins with B and not R.

I can just imagine Market Stall Mike doing his Lord Of The Manor act

I wonder if he pronounces words correctly in public, like 'down' instead of 'dahhhhn'.

If he hears the word 'oik' whenever he rides past on his horse, he probably thinks they're talking about a tree'

Vile, vile, vile - I cannot bear Natalia and her vaccous, misleading beauty spiel. The ErthSkin Limited Edition LED mask is a cheap (but not at I.W) and nasty version of something which can, from a reputable supplier, be an effective device. It’s far from limited edition - it’s a generic device which has simply been put in a branded box -and even then the brand detailed on screen differs from the brand on the box. And if you look at the control pad, it’s titled ‘Skin Whitening Instrument’ - dear god, any credible dermatologist/beauty therapist would be appalled at this…and run a mile from this red flag

She’s now talking about the EMS feature on the mask being helpful for Bells Palsy! I’m furious! The positions of the EMS contacts on the mask in question are fixed and would in no way provide any sort of targeted treatment for ANYTHING!

Aaaarghh! She makes my blood boil! Selling cheap, crap technology dressed up with over-inflated RRPs - in this instance, almost £300. She’s claiming she did her research yesterday and this is the only mask of its type. I did an extensive one minute Google search and found the EXACT same mask available unbranded at AliExpress for £20! https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005...Houyi=false&gad_source=1&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa

It’s lie after lie from her, I can’t keep up - it’s so depressing “Yooooolian! Yoooooolian! The whole universe is on the phone! Beauty Family, *looks at camera, hair swish* I don’t want any of you to miss out *over- exaggerated arm waving and pouting*.
What a vain, superficial, misleading performer she is.

Totally agree. Skin whitening? Bells Palsy? You genuinely cannot believe what you're hearing.

You must be very clever if your research found a similar product at a tiny fraction of the cost so quickly. Much cleverer than Natalia who funnily enough couldn't find it. But she's an expert so we have to believe her.

If following her advice leads you to have a face as shiny as hers then I don't want it. Perhaps she spent so much on Botox that she can't afford a £5 face powder from Superdrug.

And they seem to sell dozens of different products (I'm assuming it's not just 3 products on constant repeat). All 'must have', very expensive, and will change our lives. No thanks, I'll stick to a simple skin care routine and save my money for holidays.

Perfidious and vacuous - now she is using that old excuse of the price is wrong, should be £10 more, we will be in trouble etc. Quick hair flick etc.
Dangerous medical claims etc. This is from a channel that allowed the presenter to say they have used it on their dogs/cats paws

I've been thinking for a while that they're sailing very close to the wind with medical claims - they're actually routine now from Natalia, whereas the worst culprit for medical claims used to be Salleh.

As I'm typing this, Natalia is claiming that the 'red light' will help with wound healing and her sore neck. The whole magic coloured-lights-from-a-torch thing is complete and utter bôllocks - end of the pier type stuff. However, I think Vaibhav realised pretty quickly that the ASA is completely toothless. If you think your audience is stupid, uneducated and gullible enough to believe whatever you tell them, and you (correctly) judge the risk of any legal or regulatory sanction to be effectively zero, then there is no disincentive to run your business like this.

The ASA needs to grow a pair and actually do what they were set up to do.

IW make these claims daily and get reported to the ASA. IW continue to make these claims daily. 8 months later the ASA decides that the comment was misleading and that the best course of action would be to ask them nicely not to say it again. Which they do. Six days a week and twice on Sundays to quote Mike. And they do it because no-one is stopping them.

To quote Judge Judy "if I was Queen of the World" it would be a different story.

I couldn’t agree more with each of you, @Muttley, @Samki and @Craftalot

I’m an early 50s female with an interest in beauty…amongst many, many, many other things. Natalia strikes me as so singularly obsessed with her appearance that I can rarely bear to watch her. This in itself would be bad enough but it’s the cheap technology dressed up in over-inflated RRPs and the misleading performance claims she makes that send my blood pressure sky high

Sometimes I used to wonder if she was so dim that she didn’t realise that I.W offered the AliExpress versions of credible beauty products/devices available elsewhere. But that was before I learned that this is the ethos of the ENTIRE channel. Constantly referring to (but remember, NOT comparing!) other high-end brands versus their own cheap offerings. She knows EXACTLY what she’s doing and it makes my stomach churn. All the on-screen fawning, preening and generally behaving like a 70s game show ‘dolly bird’ embarrasses and saddens me on her behalf. She’s the sort of woman who makes me feel like my gender is going back in time…

I wonder if I.W have a Thomas Earnshaw/Vostok/Duchump watch for that sort of time travel?!

The only punishment to genuinely hurt these absolute charlatans would be either a live broadcasting suspension with just a screen graphic shown apologising for continually misleading viewers the only thing to be shown. Or Peter Simon to be suspended via his gonads to hover over the foulest smelling vat of recycled rancid meat at Pineham Sewage Works. Now let me think which would be the most entertaining of those two choices???

Ah, but remember Duke, those gonads in questions have not only been collagen-infused for years, right, and not only supported by Sankom compression thongs for years, ok, that the elasticity within them would…may…help him to jettison across the aforementioned Sewage Works and straight back to the I.W studios! Where, he would, alright, snuggle down into the pure perfection of comfort that is a Demici Del Mar catatonic Irish Wolf blanket…without so much as a hacking cough

The other day Natalia was flogging liquid collagen and she said that she started taking it because she couldn't lift her arms up. And the collagen cured the problem.

What?!?! If anyone else couldn't lift their arms up then they'd be straight down to casualty or phoning 999 for an ambulance as it's clearly a sign of some serious medical issue.

But not this fraud who she reaches straight for the collagen.
