Agreed, this documentary was a fascinating insight to the shopping habits of the mentally ill, feeble minded and old age pensioners who 'believe' the nice man on telly selling them tat at extortionate prices
Is that based on opinion or did you actually watch it ?
Gems don't sell stuff at extortionate prices. They are the BHS if you like of the jewellery shopping world. They sell 10's of thousands of items a day at little profit as opposed to the other channels who may sell one or two items at a very high price and mark up. Small margins but more sales Is their premise.
Rocks and co totally incompetent, 1 piece of jewellery they sell and it's the sample. Gemstv have far more quantity than rocks and co. And gems don't sell the sample either.

And this 'documentary' about "the nice man on the telly selling them tat" followed on immediately from ITV 's documentary about one of the younger members of the royal family.

Harry Cohen who founded Tescos used to say, pile it high, sell it cheap.

I thought Rocks and co was one of those adult channels - you know "getting your rocks off" - and deleted it from my channel list along with all the other adult channels!
Not that I look at shopping channels anyway because I'm sure you can get the stuff cheaper elsewhere.
"Documentary" ? more like a huge free plug for Gems TV, how many times did he mention the "Small" mark up?.
PS how do you know what size the rings are?
Following the demise of Bid tv and Price drop tv, The One and Only Peter Simon now appears on Gems TV
He is on now at 11pm Tuesday evening
I'm grateful to you for introducing me to this, er, extraordinary character. Since I read this thread I've been hypnotised by the clips of him on youtube. Truly a bizarre personality!

Easily pleased

No i just am sensible enough to put an opinion across rather a comment
For the second time i will ask you why you think the documentary was "utter crap" ? Are you going to tell us ?

Oh the irony, the irony!

Yes he was. Getting all orgasmic over a carpet cleaner when it cleaned up some freshly brushed on yellow paint off a carpet tile
