I'd quite happily get rid of daytime TV, soaps, reality TV, any programmes about fecking property buying or antiques! However some want them and as the BBC has to appeal to everyone then that's the way it is if we want TV 24/7, unless we want to pay a lot higher fee.

But yes, OAPs do watch the TV more than anyone else, which is even more reason they should pay if they can afford to. Non earning, debt ridden Students are expected to pay the licence, subsidising the rich old folk, even though they rarely watch TV ! It's bonkers.
