Jonathan Woss and Simon Cowl could fund it all.

At least ban Halifax and mcdonalds from making any more adverts and I'll be happy

I can not, in all good faith, willingly support an agency that so often employs Caroline Quentin.

And not forgetting that Vauxhall advert with the fucking awful reasons to be cheerful "rap"

The most basic Sky subscription is 70p/day and you still have to sit through adverts to pay for it.

Yeah, I'm all for the TV License, fuck a 20 minute TV program having 10 mins of adverts. They put out some good TV too, not all my cup of tea but that's the point surely

Sky is fucking horrendous. My family at home have it and everytime I go over I swear I watch more adverts than actual TV. You basically need Sky+ in order to not have to sit through it all.

Apart from the imported US shows it may as well just be SPORTSTVADVERTTVSPORTSLATERAFTERADVERTSTHENSPORTS waste of money.

But guys, adverts allow us to learn of new tv shows and scheduling and products that we may potentially buy.

In all seriousness though, I can't knock them too much, they are paying for the TV show I'm watching.

Them fucking betting adverts with Ray Winston though

Oh, come on... do you really think skipping the License payment is a political statement as you've tried to argue above or are you reaching to try and find anything to justify getting free entertainment?

When the BBC start broadcasting the UK news instead of government rhetoric and they stop wasting money on management costs and bad programming, I may consider paying for the services I use provided by them but until that point they can go fuckaduck.

I'm going to try not to insult you, but this really is the biggest crock of shit in the entire thread. The Beeb piss off the government just as much as they "spread rhetoric". Have you never seen an episode of Newsnight, Question Time or the Daily Politics?

The amusing thing about the BBC is that it's hated by tight people from all walks of life. Conservative misers say it's a lefty paradise promoting socialism and liberalism; Progressives, Liberal and Lefty cheapskates say it's part of the establishment and acts against progression.

All of them say 40p/day is too expensive for 9 National TV channels filled with original content, 15 National radio stations and god knows how many local services. The eye-roll on offer within this smiley isn't nearly big enough.

BBC is nothing short of a joke nowadays, i really struggle to see how paying a licence is justified? seemingly its just re-runs and repeats of programmes made years ago, and their new material is just fucking atrocious 'comedy' see mrs browns boys and citizen khan. coupled with the aforementioned paedophile ring cover up it's difficult to see how any confidence remains for the corporation.. the ostensible refusal to cover real MASSIVE news stories like the million mask march is also a worry
