Re:Funding is done by licence fee - links (Score 1)

I can never decide if the discount for the registered blind is...

One thing to bear in mind that being registered blind doesn't mean that you have no sight - just that it is difficult to perform activities for which eyesight is essential. Many registered blind can get a lot visually out of a TV broadcast.

Also remember that the licence fee pays for the beeb's web presence and (if you include digital) ten national radio stations + goodness knows how many local ones.

You're right that there isn't a discount for the deaf (but there is subtitling available on most programs AFAIK.)
