If the programming is jewellery related it surely must be Twinkle tv and Sparkle tv from QVC. Let's hope so because if not there are four more shopping channels on the way and not just two!

Not that I am aware of, no. though as a GUESS, I reckon it will be the label "4040" - eventually! No idea whether it is for that but you never know.
