If we are going to have hosts, I would want them to at least do a stint on the bed per shift because after all that is probably how we got to know them in the first place

Is it only BSXtra that has changed tits out time to 10:30 pm, or are BS1 and Blue the same?

It's a point that actually interested me as well, so I asked the people in the know for the stats; believe it or not, sales of pics/vids/xtreme, and generally the things the presenters push to viewers so much, were actually noticeably down.
As far as I know we had a slightly above average night on the phones, but I wouldn't say this made up for the drop in other sales.
So... I don't know, there's no way I'd sit here and say that the stats from one night without a host represent how the show would perform constantly if we took them out permanently. But, I also doubt it was a coincidence that sales of those things were down on the night we had no presenter.
Make of that what you will, but I would say it's likely that having no presenter can have a negative impact on sales.
Ok, thanks for the honest answer. From what you say looks like we're stuck with the hosts whether we like it or not.
So how about trying something else for a few nights. Restrict the hosts to voice-over or the side boxes, maybe full screen at changeover only. See what effect that has on sales, just for comparison.
Speaking as a caller having the girl you're talking to suddenly booted off-screen, often at a crucial moment (if you get my drift) by a stupid, gibbering telesales girl (I don't really mean that but that's how it feels at the time) is THE most annoying thing about them, especially near the end of the call.
Just imagine: You're watching your team in the cup final. The star player starts an amazing run from his own half. He's past 4 midfielders, then the 4 defenders.... He's only the goalie to beat.... He's in the penalty box.... He swings his leg back....Then.... The channel cuts to QVC (or a trailer for another channel you're not interested in). By the time the game's back on screen you've missed the best bit or worse still the games over.
Having the host come onto the bed's not quite so bad unless she starts to recite the entire bloody works of Shakespeare (seems like it sometimes) although it's more annoying on BsBlue as the phone-line is so crap it's hard to hear the girl at the best of times.
Anyway, 'Babestation', just a suggestion.
why is it that on bs/bsextra,the music is turned off when the girls are on the mics,yet on bsblue the music is left on,it makes the girls talking on the mic almost inaudible.

Perhaps they have taken on one of the deaf sound engineers that used to work at Bangbabes.
