Very interesting... prepping for the future? why not also shutdown BBC Wales?

Reform and the Tories will of course be furious at this development I`m sure...

Well, moved to iPlayer rather than completely ceased.

And it isn`t the first time it has happened to BBC Three.

Im with Steven Mill on this one - Scottish refs are absolutely dug meat. Bin them all.


Isn’t it just the BBC Scotland channel that getting cut? Like we’ll still have BBC 1 Scotland regionally but the dedicated channel is being cut?

I never watch it tbh. All they seem to do is re-run still game and old jonathon Ross stuff.

Seems to me there is far too much waste at the BBC and to be perfectly honest, a lot of their big shows that brought viewers at home and money in from abroad they’ve made a backside off. Top Gear with Clarkson and co was never replaced successfully (it could never be btw), they tried to DEI doctor Who and that’s died.

But don’t worry they’re still filming smoggie queens…

Gavin and Stacey used to get about 10million views per show for context btw

Charter is under review this year and proposals include bringing all streamers (Netflix YouTube etc) into scope of the license and even worse replacing it with an £11 a month levy added to your broadband meaning you can’t avoid it.

I really object to being forced to pay for a service I do not want. If I cancel any streamer they switch it off, I don’t see why they can’t do similar instead of charging by coercion
