REGARDING the letter "Misery for the TV viewers" in the Bolton Evening News on February 25.
B Warren says it's about time the BBC started to show commercials, then we wouldn't have to pay the licence fee.
I would just like to ask one question -- has anyone ever seen any programme on the BBC which, when finished, isn't followed by an advertisement?
If it's not advertising their programmes, it's advertising merchandise they sell. So I'm afraid it's true, the BBC are ripping us off with the licence fee.
