BBC radio, and their online education stuff is superb

I like the TV too.

In my opinion it makes no sense to compare it with anything else, apart from maybe other national state broadcasters, which it wipes the floor with.

It'd be madness to destroy it, its an institution that, when I chat to friends all around the world they genuinely envy us for having.
