Positive BBC thread

[mexico1970]

I’ve not seen all your posts, but have you listed what the BBC does well yet, as per the thread title?
As for Mexico, looks like you’re never off here mate, amazing since you’re not really very positive about the BBC are you?!
Perhaps I should start a Negative BBC thread so you can all congregate there ;-)

Don't you dare go all Balamory on me :)

The BBC obviously does a lot of good stuff, but imo in general it's no better than the stuff produced by other companies.

In a nutshell, the BBC is nothing special. It's old fashioned entertainment and very rarely 'groundbreaking'.

Many older people have a far too nostalgic view of 'Aunty Beeb' and that's what the corporation relies on.

The BBC won't / doesn't have any significant appeal to modern and future generations. It will probably be self-funding within 10 years.

She won the 2010 sleb version before going on to fillet John Torode's Kipper for a few years.

You’re a bit saucy;) She seems very happily married whenever I see them on the telly but they are a bit twee:)

Would you be happy with a substantial increase in the licence fee to allow the BBC to bid for coverage of international sporting competitions ?

It depends how substantial. The athletics coverage is brilliant, I must say. Of course, I wish there was more football on main stream telly instead of it being on subscription. On the whole I think the BBC is pretty good, although it doesn’t stop me from having a bit of a moan at the telly when there’s nothing on that I will watch.

Not a fan of the BBC. Very inconsistent quality, particularly in respect of 'comedy' shows. As the national broadcaster, it should never have lost live coverage of international sporting competitions.
It's a third rate service compared to 40 years ago. Put it out of It's misery.

I agree with the so called comedy, very little make me laugh.

I'd give you a Jim fixed it for me or a blue peter badge for that post if I could mate :)

A pencil would do...
