BBC4 alone is worth the licence fee.

Teho - does Norway have any free/state TV channels? Are they any good?
Yep, BBC4 does have some good stuff on (lot of toss also, though, but that's telly).

Our tellies (iDTV - no one ever uses that term any more do they) are always nagging us to retune them, feels like every damn week

Even if it is as simple as pressing OK twice when prompted, it still bugs me as I then have to wait a few moments before I can switch to cable.
