Advantages: The past

Disadvantages: The future

Before this channel was lauched, there was loads of publicity surrounding it, and so I had to watch the channel for the first time. When it first started, I was a great fan, I loved it, even though it wasnt a typical tv channel, seen as it is in fact a shopping channel, I found it to be both entertaining and useful. There are many shopping channels on the air these days, and most of them are pretty much the same, selling the same sort of things, having the same format, that kind of thing, but with this channel, there seemed to be something very different about it. One of the greatest thing I thought was the presenters. The orginial line up was brilliant, apart from the fact that they were trying to sell you somehting, they were also human beings, laughing at every minute, and you couldnt help but laughing at home as well. I would have to compare them to the shopping channels version of Phil and Fern of This Morning. The channel went on throughout the day, and night for that matter, and most of the products that they sold very actually quite cheap, and I found myself buying quite a few.

But, and here is a big but, the show is nothing now like it used to be. In my opinion, it has just lost the sparkle it once had. Because of its run, many of the people who were on the show have moved on to do other things, and when they went, so did the entertainment. Nowadays, it is just like the regular shopping channel shows as I described before. Also, when I think about it, the products are even that good anyone, and I havent bought anything in the past year. Now it is mostly DIY stuff that they sell, unlike before when they sold mainly household gadgets and bueaty products. I would have to say that they should bring back the former presenters and definitely get some more, better products. I cant believe that they sell so much, its a wonder.


I would say this though, they must be taking some advice from the general public as in the past couple of weeks, following christmas, there has been a revamp of the whole show. It still isnt what it used to be, but it is getting gradually better. I hope that there is going to more improvements like this. That would put a smile on my face.

I agree with you. When I first started watching it they had a varied range of products of interest to me but now it's just the same old stuff all the time
