Re: happy to pay the license fee

While I happen to think EastEnders is rubbish as well, I don't mind the BBC paying for it to be made as a lot of folk do link it.

What I do/would object to is the BBC bidding stupid sums of money for sports coverage. Not that I am against them doing sports, but I think the amount of money pissed up the wall by premier league footballers or the organisers of F1, etc, is not a good way to spend money. Other up-side is that Sky can pay a bit less for said sports, so those who do end up paying don't need to spend as much either.
