Yes, the BBC may need to save money somewhere but getting rid of the likes of MoneyBox Live and The Law Show, among others, is a huge mistake.

There are precious few programmes as informative and on the side of the consumer, whilst I wouldn't for one minute miss Strictly Come Dancing and its ilk.

Just cancelling that for even one season would save a ton of money. And let's add the over-abundance of sports pundits to the list.

I agree that it is really annoying when programmes you particularly like are axed.

But regarding things like Strictly (which i have watched, but can take it or leave it), don't the BBC make a lot of money from selling them to other countries? I could easily be wrong about that, of course.

Our habit is to wake up early, make tea and drink it watching Breakfast - even on a Sunday - which is also to be cut.

But I watch Strictly and enjoy messaging daughters and granddaughters during and about it.
