mcgillianaireI've recently come to the conclusion that Thursday is my favourite night in front of the idiot box. It all begins with Jon Snow and the Channel 4 News at 7, random stuff at 8 followed by Hustle (and formerly Mock The Week) at 9, the BBC News at 10, a mix of Newsnight & Question Time till 11:30 and to cap it all off, a discussion of the last seven days in British politics with This Week.
I've also noticed that I watch a lot more stuff from the Beeb than any other channel which makes me think the TV licence that we have to pay for in this country is totally worth it. In fact, my dad was so impressed with the coverage of last year's Olympics that he said the licence fee was worth it for that alone. The licence fee also funds the radio network which I listen to a lot more than I watch tele.
Do you mind paying the licence fee? And should there be public broadcasters both for TV and radio? I think there should.
