If you dont like it then just stop watching it at the same time it is broadcast.

Get a hard drive recorder, watch dvd's - videos etc instead then you wont need a license.

Although I think he only good thing the BBC does these days is the news & historical drama's.

Well by the time I reach 75 the BBC will have been sold off, telly will be a single infostation run by the govenment to keep us misinformed mind numbinglybored and subdued.

So apart from the loss of the Beeb the remainder will be as it is now.

Re: T.V. licence.

After ITV's losses (and deteriorating programme qualities) of £105 million due to loss of advertising revenue, they now may start to consider charging a licence fee... who knows ? Take a look at Murdoch's thoughts.

You have all grumbled about your licence fee in the past, but are still paying for watching commercial channels in consumer goods. Television advertising is expensive and will be passed on to the consumer for goods bought off the shelf so to speak.
