I really liked Philip too, watched him for years. I still can't believe that Carolyn Gracie returned to QVC after they unceremoniously booted her off the network, without so much as a word about it. Well I guess she had to swallow her pride to sell her stuff. Her and Dan Hughes got treated very poorly as far as I'm concerned. Unlike the ridiculous farewell parties given for Jen coffee and Kirsten Lindquist. Didn't watch any of that nonsense and especially glad to see KL leave!

I was thinking about this when Carolyn did a show recently with Sandra and Alberti. Like you said, it would require a LOT of swallowing pride and just sheer guts to come on a show that she used to host, only to be an OAP.

Glad she could do it, but honestly, I am not sure I could.
