Horrible.
I visit a lady in a sheltered housing complex every Monday afternoon, she is 94 years old and doesnt get out much at all so yeah she watches TV a lot or I should really say mostly listens as her eyes aren't too great but it's a sort of comfort thing when she is alone, she only has 1 son who gets very busy at work and is away a lot of the time so really apart from her son, myself and a carer for 15 mins on a week morning the TV is the only company she really has.
I know not all elderly people will be so dependent but it is the only company some of them have and if they cant afford this licence fee then they wont have anything, you know what most elderly people are like they wont not pay it like some youngerpeople choose, that's not the way they are.
