The licence fee isn't a tax, you don't have to pay it, and it's an absolute bargain for what you get. I guess they can make things difficult for the BBC, refusing access to politicians and the like, but they need to assert their independence.<br /><br />The science programmes they've put on this year have been just amazing, my favourite was The Secret Life of Chaos with Jim Al-Khalili, one of the best things I've ever seen on TV.<br /><br />I occasionally listen to Women's Hour and it's always excellent. Can't stand Bargain Hunt but my Mom and Dad love it and it's nowhere near as unpleasant as those house hunting programmes.nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02378725336497139302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6153845628469776909.post-23144424441453748482010-08-27T11:08:07.109+01:002010-08-27T11:08:07.109+01:00I agree with most of this post. But 'most'...I agree with most of this post. But 'most' is not the same as 'all', Voley!<br /><br />1) Bargain Hunt is superb - the students programme of choice.<br /><br />2) I've come across Ben Fogle, and he's a jolly nice man.<br /><br />3) I once sat down to watch Lee Nelsons Well Good Show with a pad and paper, in order to make notes on it and then blog about it. After four pages of swearing and big capital letters screaming "WHAT WHAT WHAT" I ditched the idea. It's horrific. <br /><br />4) One day you'll realise Clarkson is a wind-up merchant. One day. And asking the BBC to take off their a) most popular and b) best programme is a bit silly.<br /><br />5) You're the only male in the world who would listen to Womens Hour.<br /><br />6) The rest is fine. Well done. Apart from Dr Who, which is awful shite.Ewarwoowarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01188994060142858403noreply@blogger.com
