The BBC have blown �10m on acquiring the rights to the first Harry Potter film for Christmas. Don't even get me started on that one, but �10m on one 3 hour film. I defy anyone to tell me that the taxpayer is getting good value for that one.

Don't believe everything you hear. The �10m figure is for a package of films from the same distributor.

But most of the other films are meant to be chaff.

It's a pretty standard way of doing things tho...

That and the fact you get to show them all several times it's good value really.

Yep, it's not true. The �10 figure includes several films, including Harry Potter 1 (and reportedly the sequels).
