BBC Three to be Axed!

BBC Three is to be cancelled from TV and will be moving online as part of the BBC’s cost-cutting plans.
The BBC have officially announced that BBC THREE will be cancelled this morning on the news.
The decision they have made has attracted controversial opinions from the public.
This list shows the budgets that BBC channels have made over 2013/2014.
• BBC One: £1,051m
• BBC Two: £415m
• BBC Three: £85m
• BBC Four: £49m
• CBBC: £79m
• CBeebies: £29m
• BBC News Channel: £53m
• BBC Parliament: £2m
Although BBC THREE’s budget for 2013/14 is £85m, moving the channels programmes online is said to not have an effect on the amount of money earned. The fact that BBC THREE will be cancelled it will mean that shows such as Don’t Tell the Bride and Pramface will only be available through streaming on BBC IPlayer.
