I agree with Steed on the BBC licence fee, it should be abolished. The licence is in effect a tax on owning a TV set whether you watch any BBC channels or not you have to pay. Even if you own a mobile phone capable of receiving TV you need a licence, quote from the TV Licensing website "you need a TV Licence to use any television receiving equipment such as a TV set, digital box, DVD or video recorder, PC, laptop or mobile phone to watch or record television programmes as they're being shown on TV".
