While I was waiting in a clinic today, there was a shopping channel showing a handy tool for putting pictures hooks up, also for shelves etc. No drill, rawlplugs needed.It incorporated a spirit level. Now home, I've completely forgotten the name of the Spanish shopping channel, other than that it began with B.
Any one seen it?

Yes I have seen the advert on canal sur and not laughed so much in years. 
It may have worked a treat on the chipboard walls featured. But first try hammering a nail into your wall, if it bends then how on earth is this tool expected to do the job by simply tapping it with your palm?
It's a bit like the blade sharpener ad they show where someone is struggling to cut something with a pair of scissors, that miracally work fine once passed through the "wonder tool"
"It's a miracle" you cry
Unless you are left handed like me you probably did not notice that the presenter changed the scissors to his right hand for the "after" demo.
Keep your money for buying the drill and raw plugs.
If it's too good to be true you can bet that it probably is
