They have a short, tubby chef and a tall, chubby chef.
Electric mixers, halogen ovens, portable ovens
that slowly turn your chips or roasts and cook everything in minutes.

They are cooking prime pork, lamb chops, sausages, burgers... its a free for all as the machines get to work.

Then, the food is put out on plates as the presenter coos with delight before she and the tubby chef tuck in and sample a slice of chicken or perhaps a sausage.

Not a bad gig.... no doubt the camera guys tuck in too... off camera of course !

Shouldn't this be in broadcasting?

Timbo, I love these insightful things you post on this forum

swingaleg · 09/03/14 - 22:47

no wonder they're tubby.........

Isn't all that 'demonstration food' made of plastic ?

xxtimbo · 09/03/14 - 22:57

They dont seem to be able to cook without the use
of some electric motor driven machine.

Spose you can extend that to the working trades too,
they need a machine now just to put in a screw
why not use a bit of muscle ?

The gardeners too, who clips a hedge anymore in the old fashioned way ?
out comes the electric hedge cutter ...

Bid TV has suddenly disappeared from its channel... 23
next to Ideal World 22

It says retune your TV to get Bid TV

I did a scan for new channels... zilch !

highking1014 · 01/04/14 - 23:30

a lot of graduates from my university course work on it, apparently it's a terrible place to work with poor pay

xxtimbo · 02/04/14 - 00:05

They are not selling much tonite
all I get is a white screen with...

.....Please retune your TV to continue watching bid...

written on it !

Bid TV did disappear from Virgin cable for a short while but it's back now

epicurian · 02/04/14 - 09:54

But do they have a Face Book page?

Soundbox · 02/04/14 - 10:10

Ideal World. The channel where quality runs hand in hand with convenience. Shop from the comfort of your home - and even when out and about on your mobile. Ideal World - top name brands at a price that is right.

I always think that the people on Ideal World have been relegated from QVC

Victoria Sponge · 02/04/14 - 10:43

I really like Alison from QVC.

xxtimbo · 02/04/14 - 15:47

you mean Alison K ?

xxtimbo · 30/07/14 - 16:13

Im getting worried about Ideal World, they are beginning to
look like Create and Craft ... selling stuff to make greetings cards ..

Are they running out of stuff to sell ?
Will they go the way of Bid TV ?

Her voice is almost as bad as her hair and skin.

Not a good look when pushing 'amazing' and 'fabulous' beauty products you need a bank loan for!

<But they're only 'fabulous' until the next guest flogging theirs comes on!>

I was friends with a Bid TV presenter when we were kids. We were neighbours.

Are they on Ideal World now - the channel seems to have picked up a few from there. Not that I watch much of course :kitty:

80sfan · 30/07/14 - 17:15

Ideal World presenters seem less scripted, fake & hard sellers like on QVC. They seem to have more fun and be more happy in what they do.

QVC's Debbie Flint & Jill Franks seem such hard-faced bitches who would sell their own grandmother because she was 'amazing' and 'unique' to make a sale. Of course they say 'I can't live without...' whatever it is they're selling, well no, 'cause I bet you didn't pay for it!!

Debbie Flint belongs on Romford market & Jill Franks is a stuck-up bint who prefers talking about her own life of designer clothing and home (I bet you'd never see her in that horrid Kim & Co tat!). Oh and there's HMQ of Shopping Telly, Queen Julia Roberts!

Is that Kim & Co woman ever off?!?

She is so fake, silly, giddy & has a terrible laugh. Her clothes are so dated yet cost a fortune! I find her really annoying

There are crap shopping channels selling tat on Freeview?.

Actually, I delete all these channels, so they don't even appear in the EPG.

Hey there!
