The closure of BBC Food was, again, mandated by the Government as it was seen to infringe on commercial interests.

Top Gear, despite the completely anticipated drop in viewership following the unfortunately necessary dropping of Clarkson is still selling and selling merchandise and since Chris Evans was only on a one-year contract for it it seems much more likely he was always intended to be let go and was there just to be the hate magnet for the strident Clarksonians.

The BBC still does weekend evening dramas, but this year has been noticeably sport heavy or hadn't you noticed? The BBC has a charter obligation to show these sporting events, so it has to show them instead of more dramas.

Also the weekend evening slot has drawn less ratings over the last few years across all networks not just the BBC.

The idea the BBC is a like-for-like competitor is a Daily mail talking point and needs no further in dismissal. If it produced a wildly successful drama that competed with ITV in the weekend evenings then that would be complained about as well. In fact since ITV is currently showing a big budget adaptation about Queen Victoria in that very slot, then the BBC is doing exactly the right thing by not showing a drama.

The closing of the alleged loophole in iplayer is also something that was mandated by the government.

You complain the BBC should do dramas instead of light entertainment like GBBO. You complain it should not compete for ratings, but then complain about the ratings of Top Gear versus GBBO, it seems you really only have an ax to grind regarding the BBC and are regurgitating Daily Mail soundbites here.
