In a strange sort of way I'm glad that IW is back on air. In an environment when comedy is in short supply, at least they supply a few (unintentional) laughs. My only gripe is that they should broadcast in HD. As it stands it's difficult to appreciate the quality of the products on offer in...

If I flick onto IW and Foghorn Sally is presenting, the TV is turned over as fast as my fingers on the remote allow. I can almost feel the TV speakers buzzing as they become overloaded with her nails down the blackboard screeching.

I just flit in and out of selly telly nowadays, but I caught a new (new to me anyway) IW presenter called Jeremy. Unless I'm mistaken, didn't he used to be an actor with a rather high profile?

When Peter was flogging that anti-aging stuff and said he was using it, it solved a riddle for me be cause I've spent the past few weeks thinking his son was standing in for him! BTW Pete, get that cough checked.

Peak Peterisms while flogging the smelly stuff tonight. He was struggling to pronounce the ingredients while he desperately attempted to convince everyone he knew what he was talking about.

Who'd buy fragrances without having the opportunity to smell them first?!

Flicking through the channels I caught a snippet of FH Jacks hosting the 'fashion show'. During an interaction with the model she started cackling and I thought my TVs speakers were going to blow.

I have a question WRT Peter's one-sided interactions. Is he reacting to a voice in his earpiece, or voices in his head?

Perhaps he meant if a blind person buys enough they could lay them out on the floor and use them as trails? by sweeping their feet? I wouldn't put it past him.

Dear IW. You can save on electricity bills by simply switching off Sally J's microphone. We'll all still be able to hear her.

Some of the stuff they're selling on new IW makes the stuff they were selling on old IW look like genuine premium items.

If anyone's read Peter Kay's biographies in one of them he describes Peter Simon as something along the lines of 'one of the funniest men he's seen'. He means funny ha-ha not funny peculiar.

When Peter goes into his serious monologue mode to describe an item. Sometimes the camera is fixed on the product with background music softly playing. It's rib tickling stuff.

Some of the 'tech show' stuff is straight out of a mid-80s edition of 'Tomorrow's World'.

With the demise of sitcoms. it's always nice to know that we can tune into IW when we're looking for a laugh. Some of the products are comedy gold.

Okay gang, let me try and soft soap you with some 'remember when' nostalgia.

What legitimate use would someone find for a watch which records video and takes photos?!

The IW 'tech' offerings. I saw higher tech stuff in the 1970s! Last night I saw Foghorn Sally (she of a thousand accents) selling a kids piano. I wonder if it will be the future heirloom she predicted?

I'm attending a wedding at the weekend. I'm pretty excited as it will be the first opportunity to wear my selly telly special 'collectors' watch. My Cannon & Ball diver's watch (rated to 18 inches) has a sliver of seabed rock embedded in a special viewing port at the back. It's a fabulous hand...

When ego comes first.
