Actually they are getting pay cuts. They need the money to buy lots of logo generating shite ( See BBC Motion Sickness and BBC Pink)

Got my renewal on Saturday.  :(

If it wasn't for that fact that it keeps Mrs. KW quiet I think the TV would end up in a skip and TV Licensing would be told to ram it. >:(

i think its abit cheaky to put it up! the BBC makes money from UK TV for selling repeats! and CBS and lots of other foreign TV companies as were in a credit crunch perhaps they should foot the bill not us!

i would rather not pay a license i only watch 1 BBC show and thats TopGear i think its abit cheaky to demand £130 off me a year for aload of shoddy shyte programming

After all said and done the TV license is less than £3 per week, or 40p per day for some great television. :y :y :y  So what is the fuss :-? :-??

I used to have sky, as one of my friends has, and it is absolute rubbish for a good deal of the time. ::) ::) ::)
