    Do you think our license funds should go to support this? not only that they are apparently not going to allow the words of Land of hope and glory and Auld Lang Syne at the proms this year just in case it offends somebody....what the hell happened to this country most of those who gave their life for this country will be turning in their graves!

    Console yourself with the thought that the BBC is relentlessly digging its own grave.

    We British rile slowly but the Beeb has millions wishing its demise and the licence tax revolt is growing fast.

    I am definitely going to cease dutifully paying them for a license that i really dont need....bit of a joke title given their support for non British attitudes....just seen Nigel Farage having a good pop at them on the TV...given the exposure they are now getting i think your right about digging their own grave.

    The BBC should not get any funding by the licence tax like the other channels it should be made to fund it's self. doubt it would last more than a couple of months. Can't wait to see it's demise.

    The thing that annoys me is that sure a lot of things can be attributed to mental disorder but regardless of your sexual preference or any preference for that matter you have the choice to act on it or not there are few conditions that preclude having a choice to act.

    I would like to know just how the BBC would be able to force the government
    makes you wonder just how many members it could have in its well lined (by us)pockets.

    The Director General was being interviewed last night on the telly. He was trying to make the case for extra millions in funding. He wants to expand the Britbox capability and be able to broadcast to millions extra overseas. FFS.

    Funnily enough, I finally got around last night to watching the LNOTP.

    I have to say they did it all really well, despite not having a live audience in the building.

    I felt it was suitably patriotic :)

    @Bikerman. It doesn't surprise me, just disappoints me. If they could have afforded it, I'm sure BBC would have shown the Harry Hewitt and his gold digging, attention seeking, tramp ho saga.
