Only problem with the BBC is it is too cheap.
Mind you I don't read the Daily Mail and haven't had my fragile mind warped by its war on political correctness.

BBC3 and BBC4 don't start until 7:00 PM.

Why's that when all the commercial channels start in the morning?

Are they on ration?

BBC4 and BBC3 are a little specialised

very much aimed at a certain audience..so limited content

which is good in my opinion

commercial channels doing this..tend to repeat all day long

ITV much better for Drama imo

have been for a long time now

I don't particularly want to pay the BBC to film programmes like Eastenders and Strictly, but understand that they are there to provide a range of programmes for the whole country.

I do like the fact that they make commercially unprofitable documentaries on BBC4 which I do like, and wouldn't be made by any other broadcaster in the world

It's far from perfect but far better than any alternative currently out there - I can't imagine that there is anyone in Britain who wouldn't enjoy any of its productions

The communication act is ledislation gone though parlment passed by goverment but it is not part of the constitution which is common law.It is classed as commercial law, two very different things.the law of the land aplies to this topic.

Also the courts would never grant a search warrant on the grounds mr xxx may or may not have have a tv pulling live broadcasts.


Sorry Phil but you are piling confusion up on confusion. Common law refers to the centuries of judge made law and the system of precedent. It is one part of our legal system which is accompanied by parliamentary law. To suggest that parliamentary law is somehow not law is nonsense. Parliament is the most important law making body in the country which is embodied in the notion that parliament can make any law and break any law. In short the law of the land is Parliamentary Acts and common law with parliamentary acts being the most important.

You are also wrong about the courts. They would indeed grant a warrant. Whether the BBC would apply for one is unlikely.

I'm sure it would do very well on subscription, certainly its programmes sell very well abroad, but the point surely is to provide some intelligent television for those who would otherwise watch x factor all day. I genuinely doubt they would subscribe, however good value it is.

I see absolutely no intelligent television at all on BBC1..

but yes the rest of their channels tv/radio have some merit imo

The face remains it is an act,which in turn needs agreement to be enforsed,without your name or address or signature they have not got a contract and can not prosucute,this i why the inspectors are only payed their £20 fee if they get one of the above.
You can also remove the implied right of access if you do not what anymore doorstep visits off them.
And if it somehow went to court the bill of rights 1689 would kick it and it would be throw out it says,
That all grants of promises of fines and foreitures of particular persons before conviction are illegal and void.

Sort of, they share bandwidth with the two children's channels (so can't broadcast at the same times).  The constraints on available broadcast time does seem to improve programme output as measured against the 'opposition'.
