I used to be quite positive about the BBC, but since my daughter went to Uni, she has been hounded by the TV licensing company.

Now I am extremely negative about the BBC and I won't shed a tear when it loses its funding.

Are you concerned what the media landscape could turn into without the BBC, though?

The BBC turns out a lot of sh*te. Even its ostensibly high-brow documentaries are overemotional and condescending compared to what they used to be, and the corporation's impartiality is very very tenuous. License fee needs to go and be replaced by a subscription, because they're decades beyond their remit.

Yes, if they offer a "news only subscription" at a reasonable price I would buy it.

I literally watch 0 British TV apart from the news.

I wish they would block iPlayer if you don't have a TV licence.

I personally haven't had a TV antenna or dish attached to my TV for years.

Most of my entertainment is YouTube!
