And more repeats. I think I read somewhere that the BBC over this years festive period will show a record number of repeats. Some are welcome of course and I don`t object to them to be honest. As for BBC programs being longer due to no adverts,well for me many many programs on the BBC are simply `padded` out. One more thing, the constant trailers for programs coming up are just as annoying as adverts for me,more so as BBC don`t get paid to show them.
Another thought often occurs to me,why can`t the BBC tv channels become subscription channels paid for through your Virgin or Sky subscriptin? It could be a stand alone subsription or as part of a bundle? This would of course terrify the BBC I think as how many would bother to subscrbe? Perhaps someone cleverer than me could do a poll on here?
