Trevor's piece makes amusing reading.

Ah! So, Project Kangaroo is back more than 12 years after it was first proposed by Mark Thompson who was the then boss of the BBC.

I wonder what he would think about it now, probably something along the lines of "too late guys"!

Here's a article about…

I'm ensuring that my freezers will be filled up too, but whether it will get delivered, I have a slot on Wednesday, remains to be seen.

Don't Panic. Actually, yes... DO PANIC!


Here we go again.... On top of shortages with lorry drivers, cheap labour and now rising gas prices, the news channels have let off a bomb this morning. C02 (remember the…

Here's the story on that:

If the Aussies did sign a contract with the French, then I don't blame them for being seriously pissed off. It was just whether the deal was formalised or not, if not, tough shit.

Disney+ is now on Panasonic TVs apparently.

That's right Cheeky, thanks for that reminder. My brain is not attached at the moment, I remember that now.

So unlike the soon to launch Sky IPTV service, this will not be a full tv service, but something akin to a firetv stick.

There was news of a trial for Broadband-only customers, but that made it sound like an attractively priced bundle of on-demand content streaming services, not linear live channels being streamed like with their VM Go app. But because of NDAs there was…

A bit like the buses, they all come along at once!

We already had the announcement that VMO2 is about to launch a IPTV service, but Sky have been planning one for ages and now announced that the…

Enough of the sniping folks, back to the subject which is GB News.



And talking of which, did anyone see Question Time last night?



Andrew Neil was on the show and got asked about why he left and he said that he didn't agree with the direction that the…

Virgin02 is cracking on with its IPTV alternative for its TV service.

You saying cracking on OB, but I wasn't aware they were planning to launch a IPTV service anyway. Unlike Sky, they have a cable tv service, so I'm unsure of the benefit of this service to VMO2. Perhaps it's to expand their tv service into areas not…

Folks, I'm changing this thread back to it's original purpose which was to discuss the future of the BBC and licence fee.


Although I thought having a central thread on all things to do with the future of tv was a good idea, there are just too many…

True. Thank god Mrs T did that.

And people mustn't think that I'm anti-German either, because I'm not. This site is hosted in Germany using German technology and software.

And nor do I think stormtroopers will goose step their way into other countries, but Germany is powerful and it's…

Just trying to be helpful!

EDIT: Oh, whoops! I see what you mean!!

Interesting.

Although no doubt made in jest, those things may well come up if he wins. At least we have experience negotiating with him.

If he wins, maybe we can get him to wangle a French exemption for a trade deal with the UK!

He’d have to keep the UK-focussed migrants though, and accept back without question those who have already crossed the channel to get here!

Indeed. It's between the French and Aussies and hopefully Macron will be gone soon anyway.

OB, you need your eyes testing, my ole mucker. That's the second time you've done that this week.
