Re: [doc] BBC

I agreee completely

The BBC, and production companies funded by the beeb have this strange 
attitude that people who appear on their shows do so out of the goodness 
of their hearts. This is true for shows like Watchdog, or Question time, 
but lately this attitude has extended to shows where the person asked to 
appear has spent a great deal of time and in some cases money to be 
there, yet they still get little or nothing. DeLorean ownership isn't 
cheap and if paid to appear, we should get a reasonable fee. It all goes 
back into the car anyway!

BTW how does this fee affect our insurance (driving for hire or reward?)
