BBC4

[Darran]

Terrible news. I’d get rid of BBC1 before BBC4.

Was Montalbano and salamander on this channel?
If so it is a poor decision

 

[Professor]

Yes. Music Fridays. Great documentary programming. Foreign drama. Typical

 

[Muteswan]

Great shame.

The Beeb say BBC4 is going online only but that also means it will be readily available on iPlayer. Appreciate not everyone has SkyQ but for me this change will just mean an extra couple of button presses. Is iPlayer available via the Freeview service? You can also get the iPlayer app on your phone and cast it to an internet connected TV.

I agree some of the music content on BBC4 is good so I shall still watch it via the above methods

With more and more people using Netflix / Amazon / Disney etc, it was always on the cards. Same thing as shops and people wanting better choice, cheaper prices. More of the same to come no doubt.

This’ll be one of those things where everyone thinks the BBC should cost less but when it comes to actually getting rid of stuff they’ll say they should keep the things that they like and only get rid of the things that other people like that they don’t. It’s like those people who only claim to watch the “nature programmes” and nothing else. Liars, in other words. See also - “serious musos”. Twats.

Would you call someone who went to 2 gigs in 3 days a “serious muso “?

If you mean me then bloody hell no. I wouldn’t know a fretboard from a drumstick amd wouldn’t have a clue what to do with either. :lol:

I think BBC4 should stay where it is because it’s a great channel.

Kind of my point really. I agree with you.
