BBC licence fee

With the news that Noel Edmonds was refusing to pay his Licence Fee due to the 'threatening manner' of the BBC towards collection, can I issue a plea to all the Parliamentarians reading this to bring back capital punishment in this instance for the following set of circumstances
  • crimes against humour on Saturday nights
  • stupid pullovers
  • rampant pomposity
  • trying to promote your Sky TV programme
  • having a stupid beard
  • Mr Blobby (which should be enough in itself)
  • generally being an arse
I suggest a very public hanging, as part of the Saturday National Lottery draw, would be an appropriate and very ratings friendly manner to proceed.

I think that's a tad unfair. There was nothing wrong with Mr Blobby.

what a stupid blog - Noel Edmonds actually stated that the licence fee is exceptionally good value for money. He said he was making a principled stand against the BBCs stance of threatening people into paying their TV fee.

In my opinion, his Saturday night show was extremely good entertainment, and Saturday night TV died with it. Mr Blobby was much loved. Noel was also very popular on the radio, and a very funny DJ - with his tortoise-RSPCA prank one of the funniest Ive ever heard.

And calling on bringing back capital pubishment for failing to pay TV licences a bit far - but i do detect some tongue and cheek there, although still, not very good.

I totally agree with the blogger. And I've said much the same thing at Auld Reekie Rants

Did he do this the week before his new series started on non-BBC tv? No. The week after? No.

Self-publicity. End of.

Bring back Mr Blobby

It's not the BBC who send out threatening letters.

The use of capital punishment would help solve the chronic shortage of human organs!
