Picked up this chunky hardcover on a recent book haul. Its not so much the content but the cover which sold it to me. I literally judged a book by its cover. Still, at least its an interesting subject to learn more about. The BBC has been around all my life and for all its faults it has produced some of the finest television ever transmitted. Modernity and the whims of would be futurists have not been kind to it and the license fee continues to prove a divisive subject and its difficult to accept but most of its problems are mainly off its own making. Still, as a product which can be said to represent the best of life in the west, it remains like an old maiden aunt who has not washed her cardigan for years. Presenting us all with the problem; "Are You Gonna Tell Her Or Am I?"
