Yeah, right. Most people are still labouring under the assumption that anything that receives a signal means you have to pay for the licence. Something nobody has been too quick to clear up, funnily enough.

Frankly, I'm not even sure if anything bar the investigative news teams should be saved at this point. You start running things on commercial lines and sh1t goes sour. In fact just look at how little justification or balance there is for what's said in the article, unless it's in the videos I rarely run...

Dramas are frigging dull. You can tell from the trailers which shows will only last a series or two, often when it's an attempt to sell shows globally. Sometimes even the panel shows are edited so weirdly that they can be a slightly strange watch.

Management appears to be a major problem in the organisation, holding back people with a clue. They toe the line when they should be kicking ass and vice versa. The internal talent and external production teams are clearly amazing at the Beeb, but direction is inconsistent.
