Yep the Beeb is great, there is the licence fee of course which is the
flipside of no ads. Having said that our state broadcaster RTE has a
licence fee and *still* bombards us with poxy ads ... but I suppose I
get BBC1, 2, 3 and 4 on Sky Digital so I can't complain.

As for the programmes ... um, 'Coast' and 'Doctor Who' interest me to
name but 2!

Could be due to better commentary as well.
