If that's your criteria, then I would have thought that the farming programmes were your last remaining haven ?

Forgot about this farming life. It was a good show.

I might go back to BBC at some point, but not the now, not in its current form

So they could maybe do without the licence fee, or go subscription based if they pushed the studios a bit harder and trimmed some fat?

The BBC has a total budget of ~£5bn & BBC Studios brings in ~£200m - raising that much higher would require focusing much more on global content rather than generaly British content. Likewise, going subscription based would involve concentrating on broadest appeal in order to maximise on subscriptions. The "fat" that would have to be cut would mostly be things like local radio & news, along with some of the more specialised content because the income streams would be needed to support the content with the biggest draw, rather than the current system that allows a broad range of materials to be produced.

Packed in my license just as Brexit was beginning, not watching the constant negativity and propaganda actually improves your mindset!!
Don’t miss it at all apart from the gorgeous Kirkwood doing the weather!
Just stream everything I watch through my phone, unlimited data, simple.
Letters did start but not had owt for 8 months or so, won’t be going back to it

If there was no BBC there would be no Death In Paradise to watch this winter.

It’s not as good as it used to be

It’s a shame they don’t include the percentage of food we produce alongside

It's a shame they've been taken over by bark munching badger fondlers. 8 years and counting since they've had a penny off me.

no loss there then

You might be right there. What about the Archers, got to be worth the licence fee on its own.

Archers? No, used to be ok but as the poster above said now full of liberal bullsh*t which is part of BBC subliminal agenda

Careful what you wish for, you'll miss it when it's all gone commercial with programmes between the ads. At £3 /week it's worth every penny to have ad free TV. Like many on here, I've travelled a bit and I'd say UK TV is easily the best in the world, and in our gloomy old winter nights we need some cheer..........

In YOUR opinion, you muppet. As many people have already stated but clearly, you can't read. There are thousands of choices to watch and I don't see that many ads. If you want to wave the flag for the paedo loving British Bolshevik Corp, do it elsewhere.

Havnt bought one for at least 2 years since they stopped it for pensioners mam used to get it free im not buying one

There's a campaigning organisation for old people called Silver Voices who are encouraging those over 75 not to buy a licence. Membership is only £8 a year which I am ashamed to say I haven't paid yet. Worthy of our support and they do a lot of good. Not paying for a licence anyway.

Ah! my first ever troll on here, and joined just over an hour ago. Thank you for your well considered and balanced opinion, and good luck with the rest of your busy day on the keyboard........

Haven't had a licence for years as the BBC is just the propaganda arm of the government; everything else on all channels is so dumbed down that you need to be a moron to watch it.. All the info you need for going legally licence free is on this forum
