I new Susie Mackenzie was a Gemini. She is so vivacious and dynamic, very happy and lively to be around. Loves her bling and antiques, especially cups and saucers. I am a fellow Gemini also and was hooked on antiques and gemstones at a very early age. A bit of a magpie. It’s in the DNA, it’s part of who you are. Some people can’t handle it! You are just being yourself!

Did I see Suzie as a guest judge on “The Best and Worst of Red Faces” aired Thursday 16th February 2023? Yes, Suzie is in the top two of my favourite TVSN presenters. A breath of fresh air just being herself and never sounding scripted or robotic.
I love watching Suzie MacKenzie when she does a jewellery show. That only time I watch and buy.
I adore the wholesome spontaneous combustion this lass ignites on her shopping tv sprees. She was so excited about that pair of earrings that I just had to make a purchase! Now, all I need to do is, find someone to gift them to! You can’t script this talent, just hand her the stage and find a comfy chair.
Did Suzie have a baby recently, as she looks pregnant?
Where is Susie, I am missing her. She is better than any of the others…so animated, I love her. I only watch when she is on!
I really miss Susie, she is the best. She makes me want to buy everything she presents, I hope that she is well? Susie makes you feel that you are friends of hers. I hope we see her back on TV soon!
Beautiful artwork Suzie MacKenzie.
Susie is so bubbly and vivacious! Love her, but where has she gone?? Not on TVSN anymore?? Why?
She is a consummate host, very off the cuff. Never thought I would watch a show like this…She’s lovely, just gorgeous!
