I'm sure you all realise that the licence fee does not all go the BBC, right? Those transmitters you watch all the other channels on need maintenance. Sure CH4 get a slice of it too.
As it stands, I still feel the licence fee represents great value. Imagine the state of broadcasting in this country if the Beeb didn't exist. I don't agree with how people are pursued and treated as 'guilty until proven innocent' by the Licensing people.
