Background
The Jewellery Channel is part of the VGL . The company mines and handcrafts many of the products sold on its TV networks, hence its claim to cut out the "middleman" and to attempt to undercut high-street prices.
On 14 January 2008, The Jewellery Channel moved from Teddington Studios to new purpose-built studios in West London, simultaneously switching to widescreen-format broadcasting. It plans to broadcast in HDTV in the future.
On 11 April 2008, The Jewellery Channel launched delivery to the Republic of Ireland for the first time.

—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
