Sitcoms that only bring you situation, no comedy. The technical quality has also gone down the pan.

The ONLY quality part is the natural history unit in Bristol the rest is wall to wall rubbish. The news is SO biased I can't watch it.
So you do watch the Natural History output?

I personally don't and I really hate that stuff, but I appreciate that there are people that do like it and do watch it and I don't mind some of MY money going towards it because the BBC does provide stuff I do like to watch.

ITV costs you more per year than the BBC because the cost of making those programmes is paid for by advertising, the cost of which is passed onto the consumer in the form of higher prices to cover the cost of marketing.
