Why doesn't Peter Jones wear made to measure shirts? He's wearing suspenders (if that's what they're called on sleeves)
Because, presumably, he wears shirts from his own range...

Yes, I was amazed too when I found out he has a clothing line.

Not the best advert then. I assumed it was a bit of a fetish thing.

Despite all her bravado, Kelly Hoppen's website doesn't appear to work laugh or is it just me?

Works for me, but just painfully slow.

I expect many watchers are bombarding it.

I'm getting seriously pissed off with the faux-lift device...I really should get out more...

There is no lift (has this been mentioned already?) - the 'car' does not lurch or even slightly sway upon starting or braking, let alone when people get in/out. The gap between the car and the 'floors' is too close compared to any lift I've ever seen (unless they've discovered some new tech that overcomes the normal rules for clearances between moving objects) and, of course, there appears to be only one set of doors...

...and yet we're treated to shots of cables moving, door guides operating, etc etc

And Evan Davies doesn't even appear in shot with the poor unfortunate victims successful entrepreneurs any more.

Still watching it tho'

A clever product but can't see this lot taking a punt with so many investors already in.

WTF, HomeEasy/Byron amongst others have been selling what he's "invented" through Homebase and B&Q for years? I have loads of their kit in my house.

And offices have had PIR-controlled lights for at least one decade if not two or more.
