system. Peter Duncan, who presented BBC's blw Peter for 5 years, doesn't think the license fee should be Replaced broadcaster Dawn Nissim says payview is the way forward tomorrow for you two Peter Duncan I'm a big fan of the BBC.

I'm grateful to the BBC, but this morning we've been inundated with people saying, "I don't want to pay £." 1 16950 for something you may not see all the time, why should they? The BBC has always been about community and fairness and I don't think pay per view works. I think people have to find a way to support him a little bit. like the NHS, it's dysfunctional, it doesn't always work very well and people want to try to change and try to maintain why wouldn't that work? Peter I'm sorry, it works because it's such an extensive organization that has so many assets that it's not like leaving. on Netflix Oh, I'll watch that movie and I sign up and I just click on it.

I can see her. You would have to go to sounds. You would have to go to Play. It would be too complicated. I think basically you. We're arguing that that license fee is like any other tax: it kind of pays for something that we all benefit from, even if you feel like you don't benefit from certain parts, I think so and also in this world that you know we live in . a great democracy, I keep thinking and we are capable of having the truth, I mean the BBC does it, it's a sprinkle of truth or it tries to be and the rest of the world turns the other way, I think that's really important and the BBC is very respected in the rest of the world because of that justice case which was terrifying.

Well Tim Dave is finally saying what most of us are thinking, but that the system needs to be a hundred years old, a bit like the NHS P. mentioned that it is a system that worked when it was invented it no longer works now time has passed. is moving, the average BBC viewer is 61 and only one in 20 under 20s 5 watch BBC programmes, so if they're on Netflix, they're on YouTube. They are paying to see other things and they don't mind doing them. My children are 30 years old and barely see them, yes, and you are probably not that old.

I mean, yeah, I mean, he's moved on and unlike Tim David, the difference is. I mean, he seems to think that he seems to have this arrogance that the world will collapse without the BBC. I mean, you know I can live without sermons about gin. Thank you very much, that's fine, but you leave the gin aside and that group of younger people. You might think they don't watch the BBC, but they're probably listening to radio one or radio one extra or they'll be watching clips on Tik Tok that come from the BBC and I'll almost certainly bet they're watching the BBC match.

The day actually brought out Gary Lin. I think this is one of the solutions. Susanna actually gets rid of the licensing fee, but she charges for the clips and streaming they post, which they are not doing. Now, she takes more advantage of marketing. arm of the BBC that already makes millions, they need to focus on that, if you want to watch the BBC pay well to watch it, no one is suggesting we should watch the BBC for free or listen to the radio for free or anything like that. I think what is being said is that if you have a TV at the moment you must have a TV

, it's not a BBC

licence

, it's a TV license and look at me, I'm completely on your side and with the majority of people Seeing this, what is it?

Which is too difficult in the digital age, just say that like with Netflix, if I don't pay my Netflix fees, I can't watch it. I can't access it. If I don't pay my BBC license fee, I can't. look at it so I pay for it and I have access to all those services I don't pay for it and I can't see it I think it's because it's the institution just because something is old and the system is old doesn't mean you We have to eliminate it Tim Davy says yes we have to change, we have to become more interactive, we have to do things that are different in the future to pay for it because they can't really use advertising.

What about one of the suggestions floating around as taxes? If you earn more you pay more like you know the BC license fee is a flat fee so no matter what you earn you will still pay £1.16950 rich people don't go to be happy with that you know? I mean, I think it has to be fair, rich people are very good at maybe rich people should pay a little more for their license fee. Look, we've managed to win over people a little. the other side Richard changes the license fee for PPV 56 yes 40 for no thank you both really
