Difficult to say, as everyone will basically just highlight services they don't use. For instance, I've seen much praise for Radio 6, but I'm strictly a Radio 4 man, so wouldn't miss it if it went, likewise the foreign language services.

I would say bin light entertainment as it's not really their thing, but then I remember Blackadder and the Young Ones. I don't know the numbers, but I assume they actually make money of of voting shows like Strictly (never watched it, but I understand the terminally stupid get to vote for a fee? Apologies if wrong). Love the documentaries and news output. I've also just discovered the Last Kingdom on iplayer, which is entertaining me on the train at the moment.

So, for me, anything I don't use!

£16m Saving for cutting Teletext, How does it cost more than a few grand a year in salary for someone to tap out updates. The sooner the BBC is self funded by advertising or product placement/endorecement rather than us being forced to by a licence the better. BBC is run the The Kids Company Charity was, they all dip in when needed.

COuld not disagree more. It's somewhere to escape the incessant barrage of advertising and needs to stay that way.

Or is that exactly why the knives are out for it?

 


Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

I would not mind paying for a licence if the BBC provided a service i thought was worth it. I rarely watch anything on the BBC. The money they squander or that is filtered through the old chums brigade is disgusting. Hundreds of thousands spent on Cabs, Free lunches and huge sums paid to make shows that are s***e.
