Yet they still put out the best drama on TV atm. Summer of Rockets, Killing Eve, Years and Years, Gentleman Jack., Fleabag... And the best documentaries e.g. The Planets Each to their own but it's better than the imported repeated crap on other channels - but it does all need paying for.

It's a bit like Tax cuts everyone wants them but they still want the same NHS, Police and public services. Not sure whether pension credit is the right criteria for free licences, but not sure what else they can easily use, and as mentioned pensioners watch the most TV.
