I my house the BBC channels never watched, we enjoy ITV and C4, and many other channels. So too me the BBC is a rip off and many many agree with me.

It's only TV, close the BBC let me save £145 a year or let those that want it subscribe to it. It's only TV. Just like those that don't want Virginmedia TV choose not to subscribe to it.

If the BBC is so amazing I'm sure everyone currently paying the TV licence or face prison will keep willingly paying.

I can't think of a single programme any of my kids have ever watched on the BBC,
