Have Bid Plus done any live shows since they introduced item numbers and the new phone number? It always seems to be the same shows on rotation when ever I flick past.

I haven't seen much of it, but all I've seen on there is a Yonanas demonstration and a Crafti Creations repeat.

The kitchen area's been painted...er stripped too! I wonder what colours they're going to go for this time?

James Russell has just noticed that the studio has had a lick of paint after 47 of presenting (so it appears that is the colour it will stay).

I reckon it still could be touched up and tweaked tomorrow and finished by Wednesday.

Yeah, I suppose it could. We'll have to stem our excitement until then.

They showed a shot of the kitchen area earlier and it looked very dull. The orange display units have been painted the same cream colour.

An interesting discussion just took place:

Kiri Bloore: "Bob the Builder is back."
James Russell: "Bob?! He left with Becque didn't he?"

So it seems that there is some other work going on besides the paint.

Looks like they're going for a summer theme:

No apologies required for that excellent image (it shrinks down in Neon anyway). I knew I'd forgotten to do something this morning - I'd got distracted by checking the listings for Stake Out and seeing if there were any on demand. I think the bleached white colour does fit in with the Summer theme quite well (by the looks of that image).

I presume that this seasonal branding will continue for the rest of the year - at least they've decided to vary it a bit more than those copycats BBC One. And, to some extent, seasons probably have more relevance to a shopping channel's offering than BBC One's offering.

Sorry for the double post, but it appears that price drop isn't using this same "Get Ready for Summer" theme and is going for "May Madness" with coloured balls.

Bid Plus currently has a LIVE bug in the corner of the screen however I think the show on air is a repeat.

Is it like when they've got the old pre-records on that have left the "LIVE EVENT" bit on the bottom right?

In other news, another complaint has been upheld by the ASA:

Nicola George who was the presenter (going by the first names mentioned), so it seems the complaint is a relatively old one.
