They take about 5 minutes of air time selling typically a 100 items for about ?20 each. It wouldnt be sold any cheaper if it was down the local market but Bid TV must have enormous overheads in transmitting a live TV program to sell them which must cost about ?1000 a minute.

I'm afraid that ?1000 a minute is way over the top. TV broadcasting is expensive but not that expensive.
The correct figure for Bid TV is ?49 a minute.

Who remembers that prat on The Apprentice last year?.The one that was tasked to present TV shopping.
He had to demonstrate the use of a mini trampoline and how to assemble it.The legs of the trampoline was positoned in between his legs,if you know what i mean?
It's the most funniest and embarrassing things i've seen on TV for ages !laugh!.
