For a few quid extra you can get a cheap sky package.
When I was young and living on my own with a crappie job and low wages, knowing I had to throw on an extra hundred and something onto my tv was a liberty.
I can live with adverts and if I had the choice I would've have scrapped my BBC channels, all I want is MotD.
Feck Fecking Dr. fecking Who.
And why is it that other free channels have better films on?

Fk Sky! I would pay more for my TV Licence, great value for money and the programs we get..

Channels like ITV, ch5 and 4 need ad revenue, without it then they would slowly sing with cheap tv.. If the BBC had to fund itself from ad revenue then the income from these ads would drop.. Sky is far overpriced.
