The BBC is Great if you can afford it. But £150 is three months elecricity for some people on low wages.
The license fee should only be levied on people earning £12,000 and above.

I'd prefer a subscription service with the right to opt out. Every other station does this.

End the BBC right to charge. Nobody else gets money from every household in a poll tax manner.

'The Comedian' Lenny Henry never said anything funny in his life.

at least he has the honour of not appearing in what was the worst "comedy" to ever be put out on any national Tv station on this planet......My Hero starring Ardal O'Hanlon.....The fact the BBC gave it 6 seasons should be enough to close down the BBC alone

I loved My Hero Blush

Lenny Henry was rolled out last year before the parliament committee to defend the BBC? I really don't know what qualifications he had to do that? Except he was famous in the UK. Lots of times the interviewers would give compliments to Lenny as he gave evidence to the committee.
It smacked of BBC lovey-ness.

subscription - a code linked to your address. Key it into a box. instant bbc for a year.

If you don't want the BBC - your the sane one.

have to say last nights awards were a joke .The wife had it on and was watching ,me been the gent I am allowed her watch uninterupted , looking in now and again , I couldn't belive my eyes half the time ,every colored person possible seemed to appear. A mass love in opened before my very eyes, the good as you crowd were well represented as usual ,sickening stuff for any NORMAL person to have to watch .The colour of your skin seemed to be a winning ticket ,I wonder do the actors ever ask themselves ,did I win this for my acting ability or the colour of my skin ,or my gender . If its the latter , is it really worth having , I guess only they'll have the answer.

Eh? I didn't watch but a quick glance at Wikipedia's list of winners does not support this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_British_Academy_Television_Awards

Best actor -- Mark Rylanc
Best actress -- Suranne Jones
Best supporting actor -- Tom Courtenay
Best supporting actress -- Chanel Cresswell
Best comedy actor -- Peter Kay
Best comedy actress -- Michaela Coel
Best entertainer -- Leigh Francis

Surely all the winners bar one are White. Two if you add in the lifetime of being Lenny Henry award.

The BBC have brought this image upon themselves with their positive discrimination in favour of ethnics.
I turned the awards on last night and switched channels immediately I saw Lenny Henry. I though here we go again, another ethnic love in.

They BBC is digging its own grave. That's what becomes of lefty types playing with license money with no comebacks.

I see the BBC have banned an article on Brexit by Jeremy Paxman because it is too anti-EU.
Yet the BBC bombard us with remain in the EU propaganda ever day, with only brief replies from the leave camp.

The sooner the BBC is privatised now the better.

Sure crippen have more Murdoch filth ruling the media

So there is only Murdoc or the bbc is there what about ITV?

But the big difference anxious is choice, you have no choice when it comes to the bbc but you do have a choice when it comes to Sky.

The biggest problem with the bbc is it is full of people who think the bbc belongs to them and them only. The bbc needs a root and branch overhaul, and none payment of the telly licence should be decriminalised.

The luvvies on the BBC do seem to forget who pays for their good life,the taxpayer.It's a common theme across the public sector they all seem to think they hsould be left to manage themselves and award each other ever increasing budgets.

FREEVIEW is not freeview if the BBC is in the mix. Everybody has the choice what to pay for in tv channels. If i want to watch sky i get a sky box. if i want netflix i get another box. Stuff the BBC. Sell a box for £160 a year. Let me be the one that chooses what I pay for?
