QVC
Is there anything more banal than this?
I’ve never actually watched it in seriously, but it was on in a pub I had a drink in one afternoon and the punters were just making fun of the channel, the presenters and the expensive tat they were selling. I should return to that pub.
But according to an article in The Times today, one in four homes have ordered something from the channel. All it proves it that there are one or probably a lot more born every minute.
But then I’m a man and I don’t understand shopping. And especially junk American television programmes and channels!

I havent bought from QVC, and after the first couple of weeks of having cable TV, I havent watched it – those early weeks I was stunned not only at what people were buying, but what they were saying when they phoned in!
I occasionally going to sewing and other craft type events, and there are things there which are apparently “as seen on QVC”. I do use the microbead neck cushion which I bought from a show, in fact I have bought several as gifts since. But some people watch QVC almost non-stop!!
