The Cardinal Sin for Sugar
I think that Katie has committed one of the cardinal sins as far as SAS is concerned - contempt for her customer. In the last two shows, she has shown nothing but contempt for the people she is trying to sell too. These are people with backgrounds like SAS himself.
Hopefully he's seen this and will deal with her. |

Whenever you put yourself on higher ground than your customer you run big risks and I can imagine her talking down to quite a lot of people. Certainly if any part was done on votes alone she'd be out, but then I doubt she'd have said half the comments she has said.

To be fair, I didn't think her talking about 'Mavis' was especially disparaging. I imagine that the vast majority of home shopping channel viewers do fit the demographic of lonely old biddy in all honesty.

The cardinal sin was committed a few weeks back, I thought the angry little care bear was going to expire:
"You lost me money! You lost me money! You lost me money!" |

I was thinking about that, but also her comments about how she wouldn't have certain products in her house because she has taste etc.

Having said that, I do find it hard to be so broadminded about those people who bought the wolf jackets in series 1!! |

I think that she probably does have pretty good taste. However, her attitude is very vulgar.
and judging by her little thing with Paul, her taste in men is absolutely atrocious! How she has the front to disparage anyone I really don't know |

well she doesn't have good taste in make up, clothes or jewellery - gaudy, unflattering and brash. Her comments are all in bad taste - there are subtler and wittier ways of putting people down that don't completely alienate people

It's interesting how she gives her 'customers' names. From now on if I call someone a 'Katie' it certainly won't be a compliment.

I like Katie, she's easily the most capable there, but yeah, needs to watch what she's saying....

You may have all sorts of thoughts in your head about the target market you are aiming at but to say them out loud in such a supercilious and disparaging way shows she cares nothing about selling and everything about wanting to be a media player.

Oh dear, add Katie to the list of people that Katie has offended!!
![]() Actually I take back what I said. I don't want her name entering the dictionary and for her to attain immortality through it.

What Katie was doing was the exact same technique (apart from the cut out )

Hopefully he's seen this and will deal with her. The one person who spectacularly showed contempt for his customer and paid a heavy price was Ratner. Katie should learn a lesson from that. |
