Re: tele licence

we are the only country in the world that has a tv licence

i always thought we had freedom of choice but we have to pay for the bbc even if we decide never to watch it

you shuold be able to buy tv's and satelite boxes that wont pick up the bbc's signal

as i understand it we have to pay for the bbc because they have a deal with the govenment to provide educational programs like open university, kids shows etc

that been the case adverts wouldnt hurt between programs and the amount of repeats is digracefull especialy since other channels like UK gold 1 and UK gold 2 are available on satelite/cable tv that cover a lot of bbc and itv shows etc
