BBC TO DROP FREE TV LICENSE FOR OVER 75`s, YET £86 MILLION CAN BE SPENT UPDATING EASTENDERS FILM SET…

The BBC can waste money revamping the Eastenders Film Set, 5 years over the completion date. And £27m over budget making a total cost of £86m. I don`t remember getting a vote on this expenditure seeing as I am a license fee payer

WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE ?? UNIVERSAL STUDIOS

*******

BBC TV CHANNELS SHOULD BE SUBSCRIPTION / PAY PER VIEW ONLY, NOT ANNUAL FEE FOR EVERY TV OWNER…

Income from the license is primarily used to fund the television, radio and online services of the BBC. The total income from license fees was £3.83 billion in 2017–18 of which £655.3 million or 17.1% was provided by the government through concessions for those over the age of 75. Plus another £1.3 billion from commercial fees

BBC CHANNELS WE DON`T NEED, RADIO STATIONS WE DON`T NEED, IF ANOTHER COUNTRY WANTS A BBC STATION, TV OR RADIO, LET THEM FUND IT

The BBC’s refurbishment of the EastEnders set will be completed years behind schedule and cost millions more than originally planned, according to a new report.

The National Audit Office has said that the BBC’s E20 program will no longer by able to deliver the value for money it aspired to in plans laid out in 2015.

In 2013, plans to replace the almost 40-year-old set were put in motion with an expected cost of £59.7m, to be completed by August 2018. However, after multiple setbacks the project is now expected to be finished in May 2023 at a cost of around £86.7m
