Respect...

[missbabs]

Some of the presenters,mainly the men are observing respect for the Queen wearing dark colours and a tie. But most of the women are not. Of all the people June (Frank Usher) wearing a cobalt sparkle top now JR green! Yesterday the guest kon prem/tanzanite hot pink...PINK! Below,she had a pink frock on! Pop a cardi on or one of M/W chiffon over thingy's. Some folk have gone right down in my estimation.

I heard Biagi proclaiming we should buy the television TSV for the current “coverage”.

Well, par for the course with this crass remark.

I think it would be silly if they were all to dress in black. It's easy for the men to wear dark colours because they are not selling clothes for men. I can understand they wouldn't want to appear in Hawaiian shirts at this time but what on earth is the point of the women dressing as if they are going to a funeral? It is their job to wear the clothes they are selling.

On Ideal World, as well as the male presenters, the female presenters have worn black, since the Queen passed and haven’t looked as though they are going to a funeral. They just look respectful.

The fact that they have been wearing black was far less noticeable than the bright colours worn by some on QVC. That to me spoke volumes so I guess that QVC decided, in the main, that being off air for a day was sufficient.

This is just my opinion and no doubt others don’t feel the same.

They are deep as a small puddle the people who show no respect

 

[Bunnytown]

Well it is clearly a matter of perception. It was right to stop broadcasting on the day. However, once they're back on air I think they should carry on as normal. June is selling the brand, it is not going to look any more respectful if she wears black sequins. I also feel that some people will watch these channels out of a need to feel some normality.

I was in Tesco's today, and in the background there was soft classical music playing. It was a joy ! and a vast improvement on the bloody awful stuff that usually assaults our ears in supermarkets.

I predicted on another thread that should Her Majesty pass away QVC would have a television as the next TSV using the state funeral as a selling point.

When King Charles is crowned I predict the TSV will be a television using the coronation as a selling point.

In my store we were told to dismantle the table display of books about Her Majesty that had been on for a couple of weeks and just put them on the shelves lest anyone thought we were using her passing as a disrespectful selling opportunity.

I was in pound shop and crying as they piped out sad songs … “ I will always love you “ I was very choked

Duh...the whole country is in mourning for the Queen,that gave her whole life to her people,so a small gesture like not wearing hot pink or mint green head to toe would be the least they could do. As Qvc keep saying 'they want to offer comfort & a familiar face in these challenging times'. It's not rocket science

Now that really is a disgrace.

The women presenters and guests could wear muted or darker colours that aren’t black. Dark teal, plum, navy, dark green khaki green etc. With a simple top -white or pastel not embellished.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

This is QVC world...we could be on the verge of nuclear destruction and they'd be telling us a cozee home throw was going to make it more bearable for us.

I agree with above, but imo I do think that what we say, think and feel is more important than what we wear.

 

[Bettyboo]

Now that really is a disgrace.

He should be sacked as was Steve Whatley over the Diana ring episode.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

They could at least have a portrait of The Queen displayed in the studio. They used to do it when Tova was presenting her shows.

Most shops are doing this although I saw this and thought it a bit tacky...

 

[QVC Princess]

Does anyone remember Steve Whattly,then on QVC. Diana had died and he was sacked for describing a jewellery tsv ,diamonique diamond and blue sapphire ring, as the same style as Princess Diana’s engagement ring, they didn’t want the sad news of her death used to sell an item. It’s embarrassing to hear that QVC are selling tv’s “to watch the coverage of the Queens death and funeral’. Credit we’re credits due when they stopped trading for a day I was delighted they were putting respect before profit but that credit as disappeared now - very sad.

The idea that this TV will actually arrive in time for the funeral is a joke.
