    RE: agree

    £15 per month we pay to watch and listen to their amateur and basically unprofessional attempts to stay relevant and commercial. Can't run a phone vote, Bruce Foref,kingSyth singing and Jonathan Ross on £4.5 million sat at home playing with his ****.

    Get it sorted, money back in our pockets, a few adverts won't hurt anyone.

    The adverts are taking over the tele

    They go on and on. thank goodness for the Beeb licence fee or no licence fee, its worth every penny, bar a few programs like Come (poncing about) dancing.

    RE: totally disagree

    not worth £15 a month. Sorry, its a dinosaur that's out of step with current social and economic compass, nothing absolutely nothing stopping a few adverts and opening the institution to the real world.

    Seconded...

    with the exception of some Radio stations and Test Match Special, BBC is crap. Also it's far too biased politically for a supposedly impartial organisation.

    Snooker n One channel.

    and we've no choice but to pay by direct debit or cheque. Fooking snooker on the Saturday b4 Xmas. £15 fooking quid a month. Groundbreaking. Minority interests. Ballocks.
