I will not go deep but as long as I am watching Sky most of the time (and my kids too) plus I heard HOW much presenters get for their job... I don't usually count that but it must be for something really really good... BBC24 is OK... but repeats are awful

I think its about time the licence fee was scraped there are so many channels now available they should give in to advertisements to fund themselves.
On news programs (which I appreciate must have a lighter side sometimes) to much time is spent on trivial subjects and also when something serious happens then all other news is forgotten as if nothing else is happening in the world.
To many repeats are shown and the one that would be nice to see again are never heard of anymore.
Some of the children's programs are to silly and an insult to most youngsters intellegence, (a little slapstick is ok but not the amount that is shown)

So what do we do - abolish the license and hand the BBC over to the Rupert Murdoch's of this international? do we somewhat need dramas constantly interrupted by using classified ads for KFC? in the late 1940's the newspaper with the main important style of readers replace into the on a daily basis usher in. It frequently contained an anti-capitalist message and so agencies progressively withdrew their merchandising and the newspaper died. that's a seize 22 subject the BBC would not face; it could talk fearlessly understanding that it would not ought to ingratiate enormous agency pastimes.

We need the BBC to be free of commercial and political pressures. They slipped up badly over the Dr. Kelly affair by bowing to government pressure. The Blair crowd should have known better. So far as Sky is concerned Murdoch is a labour party paymaster and his views on this issue should be ignored. The they can watch it abroad without paying is a silly distraction

Not for me. The BBC web news site is good, but that's about the only BBC service I use. If the BBC closed down tomorrow I wouldn't be too upset.

The BBC is great, it is good quality programming. I dislike the way they dumb down to make programmes attractive to the whole of the audience- if you don't like high quality intelligent stuff you deserve to pay to subsidise the rest of us!
No we don't pay for them to watch BBC for free the NL networks that carry the BBC pay their fair share!

On all of the above, no, not at all. What's more, my daughter just came back from Amsterdam - did you know we pay for them to watch the BBC channels for free?!

1. No
2. No
3. Certainly not
I would add that the BBC is not impartial in its news reporting, both nationally and internationally. It is also riddled with inaccuracies based on its own left wing agenda.

I think so, yes.
It's pretty unusual in the world to have decent TV stations without being subjected to loads of ads.
Yes, I think it's fine. Could probably do with more Asian, African presenters and actors, but it's a lot better than it was and let's face it, it's better than a lot of what else is out there!!
