http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-33363225 An unexpected increase in the number of households saying they do not watch live TV so do not pay for a licence has been blamed for the shortfall.
Unexpected? I guarantee you that this was because of Top Gear ending. LOL!
By the way, yes, I'm happy about this, now we won't have to deal with as many of these state propagandists extorting money from the poor to pay for watching television.
