Otherwise we're just flipping the deal in the other direction. I'd still be watching all of my shows via broadband (which I already pay for) and not via your precious oldy - fashionedy over the air broadcasting towers, so... I would be paying through my council tax for you to watch BBC. That doesn't seem fair at all, Livia. I don't care if you get to watch BBC even a tiny little bit!im just heartless like that.

(tbf I'd probably end up paying a BBC sub for Eastenders because I'm just that sort of chav).

No its a flat rate whatever is per day
then by a year

The BBC Tax must keep
going down each year , though

The CEO Hall
excepts BBC shows sold worldwide
can bring money back.

BBCAmerica
is commericial

But , for example ,
the drama Wolf Hall
goes to other nations not just USA.


And the BBC has a massive Vault
also for people outside the UK
iplayer international will charge
just get a Fecking Move On Tony Hall
he is 63


getting his CBE

Lord Hall made the speech to staff at BBC Broadcasting House,
just a week after a report by the MPs on the Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee
said the £145.50-a-year TV licence fee system was outdated and should be replaced
