You have missed the point.

It's all about the government wanting to control, what the BBC do, and produce, they want to cut the amount of money the BBC get, so they(government) can keep it, and too have a state controlled media, that is why, they keep harping on about costs and wages, hoping the public will back them about the cost.

Look at it this way how much does the equivalent cable-satellite package cost?, to recive the same content.

You have to back the BBC to stay as it is,without government interference.
But dont you find that what ever government is in power,That the BBC are always on side.... Look how the BBC are reporting the EU thing..There reporting seems to be... If we come out the EU the UK goes down the pan....From there point of view there is not one good reason why we should come out..

Probably right, and if they are ever NOT on side, then their impartiality gets called into question and they are accused of some bias.

I would just like the BEEB to get a serious reality check. A little while ago I was away on business and sitting in the hotel bar. A BBC crew of around 5 or 6 rolled into the bar, dumped their equipment on the floor and loudly ordered a few bottles of Chateauneuf du Pape. Didn't even ask the price, Chateauneuf du Pape is NOT exactly cheap wine. They glugged a few glasses and left the bar, didin't even finish the wine. Nice to see that my license money is being well spent  >:( Also, I really fail to see the value in what some (most) of their big "stars" are paid. Who cares if they defect to ITV or Sky or whatever.

Let's just get quality TV and value for money

BTW, I don't have any form of pay TV, no Sky, cable, satellite etc. Just anything that's on freeview. Life is simpler and cheaper that way  :y

Stopped watching all of the mind numbing, tedious crap quite a few years go and have no intention of going back. :)

I personally much prefer reading. :y
So do you pay the TV Tax license fee  :-\

No, as I don't have any connected TV in the house and don't intend to. I also never watch anything on the BBC via the Internet, so the law change on this makes no difference to me.

This evening, on BBC, The One Show . . . has a "special" . . . . an Eastenders special

Either one on it's own is bad enough  (does the Welsh girl on One Show actually have any brain at all ?), but then to put them both together ?

Excuse me while I quietly drink myself to death
