Yeah, compared to the daylight robbery of the likes of Sky and Virgin Media.

At the end of the day we all lose out because of it. Either the payers are hit because the cost goes up, or content dips because they don't have enough money to make it.

Yes go ahead
get headlines of how kind you are
but its still Next Year
many poor old folks will be unable to
to pay the BBC Tax.

As I understand it BBC is only reintroducing the licence fee to those pensioners who can afford it?

When the BBC starts catering for people over 80, then they should be allowed to charge them. They cater for children, they have their own channels as well as having stuff on BBC1 and 2. My Grandmother used to listen to Radio 2... now they're bringing in people from BBC1, their feeder station, and the stuff they play is aimed at me, not someone fifty plus years my senior. While a lot of BBC's tv programmes are suitable for older people there aren't many that specifically cater for them.
