Who cares if Newsnight make "fewer films"?
The BBC has had it in its' current form. It should move to subscriber only and open up its' entire archive for digital viewing, listening etc.

Newsnight is sh1te, not a serious political programme.

Paxman ruined it with his inept style of "look at me" interviewing, and that became the norm.

Hmm given just how many BBC newshounds there are I think they could have been a bit more liberal with the scalpel... 3.500 in the news dept alone. Far fewer journos and far more incisive reporting sounds a decent recipe to me... after all it is the taxpayer who is funding it all.

Gary Lineker has suggested that the licence fee be voluntary, maybe we could vote on the horrible little creeps salary as well.

Exactly. His salary alone takes the licence fee from 11,326 households. I love the BBC and don't resent my licence fee but there are clear and obvious savings to be made.

They, along with ITV, have done just that with BritBox. I haven't signed up yet but am tempted by the one month free just to watch Kenneth Clark's Civilization... and possibly some Keeping Up Appearances. The whole catalogue would be incredible though.

If you do get a month's free trial, watch The Shadow Line. Fantastic.
