There are a lot of people around who want the BBC shut down or turned into a commercial station. Mainly because paying a license fee is not their cup of tea. But Remembrance day reminds us all why the BBC is really here.
Imagine if you will the BBC is removed, and Remembrance day is moved onto ITV or something. It’s approaching the two minutes silence, the queen, the army, the nation is watching. When suddenly it cuts to an advert of modern warfare 2. or an advert for washing powder. or of anything. It would be the greatest insult to the memory of and to serving solders if that happened.
