So when the BBC force us to pay a licence fee to watched @Youtube - I won't have to pay for Youtube Premium and all the content will be ad free right? ........... right? And I can charge the BBC for the Youtube content I create right?
📺 Big news! @BBCNews is now streaming live on YouTube in the UK and U.S. YouTube is the home for high-quality, trusted news: in the first half of 2026 alone, viewers watched over 18 billion hours of news content on the platform. By using @YouTube's live tools, iconic broadcasters like the BBC can build deep, authentic rapport, bringing global communities together to learn, discuss, and follow history as it happens.
Community note
This comes as part of a wider move to expand the license fee charter. An upcoming government white paper will recommend Britons be forced to fund the BBC if they use YouTube, Netflix, Amazon or Disney Plus independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi

I've just found out that Americans boil water in a microwave, this can't be true? This is the most outlandish thing I've never heard of - can that even work?

Ban Halal meat in the UK. This is how it's done. It's inhumane. Are you OK eating this?

This new Baywatch series looks good because it fits the criteria of Baywatch really well, doesn't appear to pander to social political narratives and upholds the original schlock without becoming a comedy or forcing in joke one liners and quips I grew up on OG Baywatch, and this level of not "quite" over the top ridiculous hits perfectly. I remember being up the tree in my garden with friends trying to work out how we were going to save Baywatch the first time it was cancelled :P
The first trailer for the ‘BAYWATCH’ reboot has been released. Premiering this January on Fox.

I've been watching Law and Order SVU all day - so every episode is "white men are abusive rapists" and women can't be held accountable for anything, right? I've seen a women who was a literal terrorist and another abducted babies but somehow they were both the victim🤷🏻

My girlfriend is watching this Monsters The Lizzie Borden Story - it's framed as Eileen Wurnos' obsession and she visits the Borden house. This never happened. Why is it now acceptable to completely rewrite history? My gf said she had really been to the house as it's based on a true story, a simple fact check shows this to be false. Netflix is rewriting history

I remember 60 years ago collecting aluminium milk bottle tops to send blue Peter to help build schools in Africa, now bottle tops are banned in Europe and Africans are burning down schools in France.

Primeminister Andy Burnham and the British government are letting criminals out of prison as part of an early release scheme whilst importing 10s of thousands of illegal immigrants - they're orchestrating a civil war. Get out of the major cities, stock pile food and energy

I love Gremlins, it's one of my all time go-to Christmas films, but I'm a bit worried that this Gremlins 3 looks a bit like AI/CGI trying to do stop motion and not actual puppet work and practical effects

Microsoft adding ads into the middle of fight scenes in games is nothing short of egregious. At most in game advertising it should be confined to open world billboards or in world product placement
Microsoft has filed a patent for ads that could interrupt games after boss fights, cutscenes, quests and multiplayer rounds Players would receive credits granting temporary game access, while watching an ad would award another credit to let them resume

This is Robert Bobroczkyi, the basketball player / actor who played the part of the offspring Alien at the end of Alien: Romulus and also appeared in The Backrooms - why the hell would you waste someone like this by covering them up in a full costume! This is just a generic tall character, could be anyone, there's so much more potential here for him
