Newest Review: ... trying to find a bargain. At the time they seemed to have some very good deals and bargain prices. However nowadys the competition seems to have stepped up a gear and there are many many channels out there now offering even better deals at lower prices.

I have to say i havent watched qvc in a very long time now. When i was younger it was one of the only shopping channels out there and we used to spend hours watching it trying to find a bargain. At the time they seemed to have some very good deals and bargain prices. However nowadys the competition seems to have stepped up a gear and there are many many channels out there now offering even better deals at lower prices.

I am 27 now, but remember first seeing QVC on TV when I was about 14. Julia Roberts (not the film star) is one of the longstanding presenters of this home shopping channel, and her hair certainly looks a lot better than the mop of an overdone perm she had all those years ago, but she is still arguably one of the best presenters and has probably aided the channel's longevity. QVC is available to watch on freeview, cable and satellite TV and is based on the American version.

I don't like the QVC channel, I don't like most of its presenters and I don't like the way it treated me as a customer, that's when I was a customer. They are the last retailer on earth I would ever choose to shop from now. QVC are a television shopping channel that originated in the U.S.A. For many years now they have been broadcasting on British Satellite television and are now also available to view on Cable, Freeview, Freesat and On Line. QVC broadcasts 24 hours a day and the bulk of that is live, the remainder is replays mainly of items for sale that were featured earlier in the day but sometimes for items first screened quite a ...

good films, whenever u like! going round in circles looking for the film listings

Classics like Crystal MAze are shown They're shown again and again and again

A great independent channel service, preserved old Thames favourites, bought in fresh new programmes, kept up with the times and has a bright sparkly image Being an independent station, don't expect 'paid' quality programming as that offered by the BBC or Sky etc.

cartoons but not as good as other channels
