The Tories Never Did Like the BBC

[jazzy_dave]

This damn fucking government is trying to Alter the very fabric of our most dearly beloved Auntie Beeb.

"The government is in danger of “dismantling the BBC’s civic value and destroying its economic value, which makes it even more important to involve the British public, especially as they haven’t had a chance before” to become involved."

Mind you , there are some programmes they could easily drop , such as The Voice, Strictly Come Dancing, the Bake Off programmes, and other such fluff.

Here is Graham Norton's view -

I was kind of kidding about the bake off show. What could be endangered is the top quality drama they produce, as in Doctor Who, Jonathan Strange and Mr.Norrell, Ashes To Ashes, Spooks, Being Human for example.

I caught one of the bake off shows for the first time a few months back. It was really fun, and sure put my baking to shame. :o
