I even find myself having to subscribe to pay for Sky Sports because the commitment to live sport has been reduced on the BBC to the point where they won't show all live f1 races, but won't give up the contract either, despite the fact that channel 4 were willing to step in and keep them free to air.

So my licence fee is being spent on less of the things I want, but I have to continue paying it just so that I still have the privilege of paying extra to continue to watch the stuff that they used to show.[COLOR="Silver"
Fair enough, thanks for answering. I think the BBC is worth the cost, just look at the history of great shows they have produced. Where would TV in this country be without it? I also love Just a Minute and I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue. Each to their own though.
