    TG4 show 2 episodes of the weakest link from 2005, 7 days a week, Do they not have anything from their own archive they could show ? Is paying the BBC fees to show the weakest link a good use of tax payers money?

    Ah sure, crappy Virgin Media 2 shows the Australian version of 'The Chase'. Who even watched terrestrial t.v. anymore?

    It's fine for virgin media to show crap because they don't get tax pay money, TG4 get something like 30 million from the Exchequer

    The funny thing is I’d be happier paying money to the BBC in terms of licence fees.

    Way more bang for the buck.

    Is having a TV station that broadcasts in a language that nobody uses an efficient us of tax payers money?

    TG4 may get government funding but none of it is from your Exchequer.
