Possibility the BBC4 may close

It is disappointing news, their documentaries, Scandi dramas and Friday evening music programmes would be a big loss to us. I will sign the petition.

I really enjoy Bob Ross doing his paintings at 7pm on BBC4.I don’t always admire them, but it soooo relaxing to watch.

Why do I get the feeling the Powers That Be are trying to dumb us all down and turn us into zombies?

I watched a wonderful 4 part series called The Beauty of Books on catchup last night; ex BBC4 programme. Maybe they want us all to subscribe to Sky Arts which I assume caters for people that enjoy art/arts programmes and documentaries. I actually look on Lucy, Janina, Andrew GD etc as my own personal teachers/guides, dare I say chums. I'd miss them terribly.

maybee I’ve got it all recorded. It looks delightful.

Sky arts does have good stuff I must say, but it also has endless repeats. So you can’t rely on it for a good evenings viewing.

I love BBC 4. I hope it doesn't close.

If the BBC paid less to "stars" they wouldn't need to close any channels!

I was only thinking last night that, given the fact that it's unlikely to be safe for someone of my age to visit galleries/museums; go abroad to see them etc being able to watch the sort of programmes that BBC4 show is vitally [emotionally] important to me. One of the few ways that I can switch off from what's happening around me.
