  1. A simple but very big YES .


  2. Nope. I would hate to lose my radio channels.

  3. A simple yes! ( a not so simple solution! )

  4. YES, YES, YES, most definitely, we should at least be given the choice as to if we want BBC or not, good question, have a star!

  5. The licence fee does far more than make programs for the BBC.

    Much of the tranmission net work in the UK is supported by the Fee.  So if you want to say goodbye to all free terrestrial radio tranmission and television transmission scrap the fee.

  6. Yes.

  7. indeed

  8. Yes :)

  9. yes

  10. Yes but only by changing the licence fee into a pay-to-view service.

    So people who don't want adverts (like me) would still pay to keep the BBC going but those who didn't want to pay the licence fee wouldn't have to.......so.......licence fee collection problems would all be a thing of the past too...

    :)

  11. No

  12. Hi Agent Zero

    I say yes

  13. Not in the UK.

    However, all other services world wide should raise their own revenue, that way the license fee could be greatly reduced for us all.

    I don't know how many people are aware of the fact that we in the UK subsidise the BBC World Service.

    One service should be free of the dictates of advertisers and others with their own agenda.

  14. NO NO NO !!!AARGH....!!!

    Bleedin' adverts no thanks. And O.K we have to pay 11 quid a month but if you have ever watched ANY telly in another country you would be happy to pay double.

    I suppose if all you watch is reality t.v sh1te then I don't suppose the BBC registers in your life much. I love the output and quality of the BBC and would pay it happily for anything with Timothy Spall in it.

    The only way a lot of commercial channels can produce any kind of decent drama is when they join up with an American channel. It then turns into a big 'dumb it down' for the Americans.

    I'm not saying the BBC are without blame and corruption and they have done a few things and collaborations that I never thought they would but on the whole I'm sorry I'd pay double.

    I suppose if you don't want to pay the channel and all it's output and collaborations should be blocked. I reckon people would last 6 months before paying again.

    Sorry not just a simple yes or no for me..;)

  15. NO. The BBC is the only channel with quality, where you don't get your favourite show interupted with ads. Just ask Stephen Fry.
