[QUOTE="binky, post: 484600, member: 490"] this is the main thing about the BBC it's not a state controlled TV broadcaster, although it feels like the government has a big influence, The BBC has a reputation for quality TV, so sells lots of stuff abroad - you wouldn't believe how many American Poldark tourists are in Cornwall. So there's far more influence from the BBC than figures alone would suggest in indirect earnings for the UK. How the finances of foreign earnings is set-up I don't know, but I undestand they are important in keeping the licence fee down? [/QUOTE]
