The BBC top brass admitted today that they are ‘open-minded’ about abandoning the licence fee as the corporation appeared to accept its current funding method is likely to be axed.

Chairman Richard Sharp refused to ‘rule out anything’ when he was asked about a ‘two-tier’ system for the broadcaster, which could include a part subscription model. He said the BBC was facing an ‘existential question’ and would ‘look at all options’.
