Had the most lovely stay at my daughter’s last week, helping her look after the kids while she manned the pumps for a few days. I went in the pool with Phoebe nearly every day, had some lovely laughs with Jasper, some walks, some shopping, some lunches, some chats. Loved it. Such a shame they’re so far away.
Lauren loves her little boy so much and he’s such a character. This is a beautiful picture, when we went for lunch to one of her favourite places next to the river. Can’t wait to go again!
Watch – Mrs Doubtfire
What a fabulous outing we had this week with nearly 20 QVC presenters and guests. Including Allie Keenan and Kathryn Huntley, Lee Holborn and James Murden, Patrick Hoy, Lorna Ko, and so many more. See who you can spot!
Here’s what James posted! Combine these two photographs and everybody is featured! (There’s also a spurious random poking his head in and photo-bombing at the top of one of them, can you see LOL!)
I have to say this is absolutely one of the best productions of the theatre I’ve seen in years. So so good. Excellent singers, brilliant new music, very funny, the main guy is incredible. And such amazing energy. We laughed and even cried. I definitely want to see it again. I might take mum and sister nearer Christmas! Highly recommended! 9.5 out of 10. One of the highest I’ve ever given!
Vlog – a fabulous fun time had by all of us at the theatre this week, here are just a few of the highlights! (See it here).
SNIPPETS
Hair up!
So hot last week, I put my hair up for several of my shifts! Had so many lovely compliments about it! Might have to do it again! If you saw it what did you think?
Shoot!
Had a photoshoot for the new design I helped create, specially for our 30th anniversary! All will be revealed soon… Just a couple more weeks to wait. It will be on on October 2!
A Sparkly Event!
And of course we had a big Christmassy four day special and I saw my lovely mate Alison Cork. She still looks absolutely incredible. No sign of her new lifestyle changing. So proud of her. And some wonderful products as well. Take a look at the Alison Cork range on QVC!
Mighty Miceal
If you haven’t seen my colleague & fellow presenter Miceal’s news, go check out his Instagram (here). He is clear after his colon cancer treatment. We hope to see this inspirational guy back on our screens whenever he is ready, and give him a hug when he comes back to QVC! Send him a nice message on his social media 🙂
Watch – 2. A bit of nostalgia for you. My friend Chris Stacey sent this over. This was 33 years ago. How is that even possible? Seriously!
Blooper – omg Jackie Kabler does it again! With a little help from Marie Françoise and her “cuddly Friends”… 😂😂 (See it here).
Funny – and here’s another little bonus (here) for you courtesy of my mother who spotted this one on Facebook! Very funny 🙂 try on a friend 🙂
Podcast
Go here to get the latest Inside QVC podcast from Will, and the current one if you haven’t listened yet :-). Don’t forget there’s a massive back list to catch up on, too!
In this week’s one, out Monday 18th, Will speaks to co-founder of ‘The Baking Boys’, Brett. Brett talks about his early career in the skies, starting ‘The Baking Boys’ after a very challenging time, and what else he gets up to away from QVC! We just love those pies!
Book of the Week – You know you love a book when you’re so desperate to listen to it that you get Alexa to read it to you with Alexa voice assist! Yes, she even reads Kindle books. The reason is because the Kindle book is available but the audiobook is not, for book 7 (yes seven, I’m nothing if not obsessive!) Of the Charles Holborn legal thrillers series by Simon Michael. And it doesn’t disappoint. I think actually they get better and better.) But I might leave it now until the eighth one is made into a proper audiobook because it’s a bit of a faff trying to activate the app on my phone then make it read the book to me! Still a good story if you read normal books though.
Book 2 – But the one I’ve been waiting for, Richard Osman’s latest featuring the pensioners from the care home who get involved in murders, it’s just out! ‘The Last Devil to Die’ gets down to the knob of the story pretty quickly, introduces new characters, and brings back the other ones that we all know and love! I will report back next week. I’ll probably finish it in a day! I just love his writing 🙂 and it’s read really well by the narrator on audiobook too!
QVC TOP DEALS FOR THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS
Friday (today) – go to qvcuk.com and search ‘today’s special value’ to see and buy what’s left of the Calico set of four assorted chocolate box selection for under £20! Then at 9 pm I launch…
Saturday – …another fabulous Christmas gift idea in our four day event, which ends today, Saturday. It’s the bell and Howell 10.1 inch wireless photo and video sharing smart photo frame! Looks good!

Big deals ending Sunday night
Go to this section of our website each week to discover the current ones which often end on Sunday nights if there are any stocks left!
Big deals are available on air for usually a week, they may be longer online if stocks last. Occasionally they last a couple of weeks but there are new ones every Sunday night so come back again and see them on the link above.

Back with the ultimate retinal in a trio. It may be online now. And I have to tell you it is absolutely marvellous. After about a week I’ve really really started to notice a difference and so have other people. Super affordable for what it is as well. Plus on Tuesday, I’m really looking forward to the menopause your way hour at 8 pm as well. I love doing these shows in a chat show format of finding out some of our guests’ stories, all going through the same thing together 🙂
