Ben Fogle has decided to put his own money towards paying for the pensioners’ TV licence. After the BBC restricting free TV licences to those over 75 receiving pension credit, the TV presenter has stepped in. He was ‘disappointed’ by the decision but added that he doesn’t ‘entirely blame’ the broadcaster. In a statement posted on his Twitter account, Ben said: ‘I LOVE the BBC. I think it is one of the greatest institutions in the world. ‘I have decided to donate my entire salary for this years BBC Animal Park to subsidise licences for those over 75 who have no way of paying for a licence.’
