    Who would pay to make and broadcast the programes in your perfect world?

    Most of the channels on the TV are paid without license fee money. Also, most countries don't have a TV license fee and they also make TV programmes. I think the biggest issue is people not wanting adverts but I really don't have a problem with them.

    The Midlands accent is truly horrible. I am glad they do not broadcast from there.

    Nice.


    I think all accents are wonderful, it shows the rich diversity of our nation. Wednesfield is my favorite, I could listen to it for hours. What is less wonderful is the arrogance that sometimes comes out of people's mouths (or in this case keyboard but you get the idea).

    There is no such thing as a single 'Midlands' accent. It's the same as saying people from the south all sound the same, whether they come from east London or Bristol
