The BBC is a fantastic service and I think too many people under appreciate it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It used to be.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Still is.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What would you say is so great about it now?

A lot of its programs have degraded.

Iplayer is one good thing though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think it’s heralded around the world - held up of an example of how you do things.

The content they put out is mixed of course, but on the whole I think it’s exceptional given it doesn’t operate as a private business.

Appreciate it’s just an opinion but think a lot of people underplay the range of services they provide - worldwide.

We’d miss it if it were gone imo.

Don't know about everyone else, but I use to watch BBC a fair amount when younger, even their bitesize for GCSE's 🙂. Barely watch their channels now. Never really listen to BBC radio either. I use their news and sport sites though.

N2, I use their web site every day and I enjoy their dramas.

And certainly watch their news channels when I’m abroad.

Some people won’t use it much of course but surely we can all see it’s value.

It has a value, but people will ofcourse argue over the license fee and how they spend it.

He and his agents negotiated the deal therefore he is entitled to the money.

I have zero issues with presenters earning the salaries they agreed.

The question is how can the BBC think that spending these sums of money is appropriate. I watch MotD for the football I couldn't careless who presented, analyzed or commentated on the match.

Unless you watch it on mute, a decent commentator would be preferable.

So he gets paid over a million to watch football and make shiiit football puns, and I'm doing the same thing on here for nothing. Not fair.

Lineker taking a 400k pay cut puts him on 1.35m and Zoe Ball's current salary is 1.36m, the BBC just want to have a woman as their top earner when they release the figures next year

Lineker is a top-class troll. And I mean that as a huge compliment,because he trolls the gammon and the racists and I for one love it!!
