  Yes, Mark, Amy and I had a bit of a row this morning. I foolishly suggested that I missed the sexy spicy show, and with Amy so unhappy and stressed right now she has a hair-trigger temper. It wasn't a nice back-and-forth though at the end we both just asking for calm. I did learn from it, however, that Amy has decided not to perform on the 4am show because they took away the TV audience and they are not getting any callers (she did not say this explicitly but it was easy to interpret what she was saying). This morning she had literally 3 layers of clothing. I do understand the reasons for her unhappiness, but if you took her spicy show of a year ago and compared it to today, you would not think it was the same girl. All the joy and fun and hi jinks are gone. I just need to learn to shut my mouth and understand that things may not be good for a long time.

  This is really complicated and Amy is right at the epicentre of it all. She is like Spaghetti Junction in England, everyone and everything has to go through her. It is not just crap from BS she has to put up with either. The girls are moaning about lack of business and their own irritation at how the channel is run is often directed at Amy, which means that she is getting flack from every direction.
  
  When you bear in mind that she now seems to feel that the entire fate of the channel rests on her shoulders, she is on the edge of a breakdown. Lack of sleep and worry is going to make her ill soon, I have no idea how she has put up with everything for so long.
  
  Maybe, she should go on strike and just walk out and see how they manage without her. No doubt the channel would go off air for a while  as a result but it may give her bosses the kick up the arse they need and to stop taking her and the show for granted and finally get around to doing something to make things better. Carrying on as is things are currently is not an option as it would just lead to permanent closure of the channel before much longer

  When the show got taken off TV and the calls dried up for the spicy show, many of the girls went on a work to rule immediately. Some girls even put on extra clothes for the spicy show to make their point forcibly. The arrogance and complacency of their bosses just meant that they ignored their protest completely and produced the inevitable consequence that some of the discontented girls have now just walked away completely as we have seen over the last couple of months.
  
  Still nothing has happened to make the shows better and some of the girls themselves are starting to make the problem worse with their attitude, none more so than Amy. When I call her now she just wants to offload all her troubles and not put on a sexy show at all. The chat box now allows communication with the girls but has happened at a time when all this has done is to give Amy a platform to breathe fire on anyone passing by. She needs desperately a 2 week holiday, paid for by the company, to get away from everything and completely reboot. However, that is not likely as they could never manage without her for that long I suspect.

  All this is true, GrandDuke, which makes me feel badly for having set her off.

  Have just read your reports of the situation as you see it and this all seems extremely serious  - Amy must be our first consideration and I would love to send her on holiday for a few weeks and if I could I would  The thing is she has loads of supporters How can we realistically help her?????

  I really am at my wits end how else we can help. We have made positive suggestions on what they could do to improve things but these have only been met with disdain and ridicule. Very occasionally, something I suggested happened straight afterwards which was quite a coincidence. This happened twice in one month. However, back then things were changing almost every day, let alone every month, and it needed a period of stability. 
  
  Unfortunately, that stability only occurred when they had reached rock bottom in terms of how good the shows had become, instead of when they were still exciting and dynamic. Now the time for stability is over and it needs an explosion of activity instead to rescue the sinking ship before it goes down.

  I wouldn't feel too bad at upsetting Amy derryman, the cause is not you. She needs to let some anger go from within her before she explodes and you just happened to be around at the time. Hair trigger is a great phrase, it does sum up how she is some days.

  If she is not being allowed to take a holiday at least, maybe she does need to walk out. We all know that the shows will fold soon after she leaves for good, so it may finally force some sort of action from her bosses to persuade her to come back. She may then be in a stronger position to negotiate with them over making substantial changes to the channel to allow them to increase their business.
  
  If these changes were made and business picked up again, they may be able to tempt back some of their star performers who have already walked out on the channel.

  I think these bosses are unscupulous and I doubt very much if Amy walked out they would turn a hair. They would probably just start
  looking for someone to replace her - after all no-ones infallable
  Sorry to sound so harsh but these days this is realality and I really feel for Amy

  Hi Mark, what you say is essentially right, it is not in Amy's or the show's best interest to unload on loyal customers. But for right now, I also realise that negative comments about the show are going to set her off, and I know that, so it's probably pointless to keep driving home the obvious fact that the show isn't very good right now, and how much we miss the good times, etc., on the public chat. It's hard for me to keep my big mouth shut, especially when I see the channel's self-destruction, but I don't want to exacerbate the tension. So I am going to try to stay as positive as I can in my comments (or keep them to a minimum)...
