HEAR ALL SIDES: Letters to the Editor. Picture: PA
THE BBC want to scrap the free TV licence for over 75s.
I don’t know why we pay a licence fee at all with all the drivel that’s on, Christmas was a waste of time.
The only outstanding programme being Call the Midwife.
On a Saturday night all that’s on are repeats and a crackpot of a show The Greatest Dancer.
Now at prime time there is MasterChef. Just how many cookery programmes do we need? There is only so much you can do with food.
The next one will be Celebrity MasterChef. It’s all about cooking and reality shows.
I’m sure someone must have a bit of imagination and revamp some of the old drama shows that used to be worth watching.
