BBC was good when it had non British stuff like Neighbours 5.35pm BBC1 after newsround in 4:3 420i feel the force. And Buffy on BBC 2 on Thursday evenings. But then it went all "British content only" and... Lame. Other than the good Doctor, the only British channel that has ever produced decent quality original telly is Ch4 back in the day.

I mean obviously there used to be gems like Byker Grove too, but then they ****ed off all of the kids TV to digital so you don't get masterpieces like that any more. I say burn it down. And salt the earth.

You liked the BBC for Neighbours.

I'm sorry I can't listen to you anymore, GET OUT.

A great policy but yeah.. not vote worthy.

A great policy.The BBC are a disgrace.They hire private companies to bully people and strong arm their way into people's houses like they think they've got a right.People who have no dealings with the BBC and don't use their services do not have to let any private companies into their home.They tell them they don't want their business,They don't want their services and don't appreciate their disgusting aggressive sales tactics but these people intimidate people into letting them through their door.There's examples all over Youtube.
However nowhere near enough from UKIP.Their work is done.

And many are'nt.
These private companies have no right to enter your home and neither do the BBC.Even when the police turn up they legally can't assist these thugs.They're there to "keep the peace"
They harrass people for owning a PC because it's possible to pickup BBC programmes.So according to them if you own a computer they have a right to barge into your home.Do you think that's right?Would you let any other staff from a company barge into your home.

They can't enter your home unless you invite them in, I think most people are aware of that

And when you ignore their harassment letters and refuse them entry for long enough they come to your door gang handed with a piece of paper pertaining to be a 'court order' that's not even signed by a judge and try forcing their way in.
Can be extremely distressing for many people.It's disgusting.
Alot of people dont agree with or want the BBC on principle due to the abuse and peado cover ups or some just don't use their services for other reasons.Some don't watch telly at all and don't want to let people into their property.Why should they be bullied into having something they don't want.

It would be exactly the same length, most countries that show Eurovision have ads. The BBC just fill the gaps with recaps / Norton chattering.

Hasnt been the same since it lost Wogan's sarcasm.

You watch Eurovision on catch up

Though I'm pretty sure you can watch it live online somewhere as I distinctly remember watching it when I was in Uni halls, and I didn't have a TV at all there .
