Yes It Does. Thank You Very Much. It Just Seemed That All The Channels Were Named "BBC (Insert Number Here)" Or "TV (Insert Number Here)" So I Thought They Might Be All Government Run.

In Australia (that bunch of convicts), we only get BBC for UK news and Sky for UK sports news. The others don't get much coverage out here.

(Didn't vote because I'm not a Pommie) :)

None of the channels are government run, and BBC television is not government funded either. I believe the World Service (a complex set of different radio stations tailored to different international audiences) which is part of the BBC is the only part to be directly funded by the government.


EDIT: didn't vote because I don't own a TV, and haven't lived in the same house as one for years.
