are QVC missing a trick?

[silversequin]

It is Charles Dicken's 200th birthday today but alas our favourite shopping channel does not seem to be celebrating:

No special Miss Havisham dimonique, the permanent engagement ring perhaps?

No Kelly Hoppen "Bleak House" range

No "kings Realm" "please sir, no more" food packs

 

[Mam]

A little too cultured for QVC perhaps?

I have often thought 'what the Dickens is that' when I've seen stuff!

How about a Hot Pickwick. Some Christmas Carol Hochmann, or sort out yer Martin Chuzzlewit with a NoNo Nanette whatever they're called?

Not like Q to miss the opportunity to "pick a pocket or two" :cash:

Jill Franks would probably tell us that he founded the Dickens and Jones store.

They could have had a selection of his books complete with auto signature on a post it !

Well, they've got their very own Uriah Heep: the ever-so-humble, hand-wringing Charlie Brook

Pipa = Pip

Richard = Little Tom (short for tomato ?)

Craig = Little Dorrit
