rokhed00 Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 name a thousand and i'll name you two! I'm sure the BBC have made well over one thousand shows, no need to name them all, but if you can name more than five shows the BBC have made in the last five years that are any good I'll concede the point down to 99%. life on mars>Neighbours It's about the only thing that is on the BBC though.
jayseven Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 why not pick 5 yourself? ... i would say they haven't made 1,000 yet. So i'll just name Top Gear and Planet Earth for now.
rokhed00 Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 why not pick 5 yourself? ... i would say they haven't made 1,000 yet. I can't, I can only think of one.

I can name five from the last five years I think are good Torchwood Monkey Dust The Mighty Boosh QI The Apprentice and if we include ones which have been going for over 5 years then there's a lot more.

By liking Torchwood you have invalidated your opinion.
Slaggis Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 never mind the buzzcocks (said it cos it got a new presenter and therefore changed in the last couple of years) and the show rocks By liking Torchwood you have invalidated your opinion. and by outright saying someone elses opinion is wrong you've done the same to yours
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 Finally! A show I never watch but other people enjoy isn't being shown any more! You have to no idea how happy this makes me! Now I can sit and do something else, whilst Neighbours isn't on! Get in! EDIT- Buzzcocks isn't produced by the BBC.
Zechs Merquise Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 It's gone to Channel 5, you'll still be able to watch it. BBC are total wankers, they make billions in license fees and from selling the rights to programmes. They are exempt from having to show adverts and are meant to be a public body and act in the public interest. They are a left wing, politically correct establishment mouth piece who waste their money paying the bosses massive wages and generally show shit. I can't remember the last time I watched anything other than an FA cup match on BBC. The fact that Neighbours was always in the top ten most watched shows every week and the BBC has just let it go shows how out of touch they are.
Bren Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Ah no, iv just thought, this means neighbours will now have adverts, that ruins TV. Thats the reason i dont watch telly.
Rummy Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 The way I see it, this is like an extra £350k a week or so for the BBC to fund into other stuff. That's quite a rough guess at this being £70k an episode atm, and I have no real idea of the costs of things, but I should imagine Neighbours was one of their more expensive shows given that it was one of the more popular?

Considering their Robin Hood cost 8 million and they just spent 1 million on a stunt for Eastenders then Neighbours is a bargain in comparison.
