Cost of BBC licence fee is going up again next year | UK News

Television viewers will need to shell out £10.50 more from next year, the culture secretary has announced.
In April 2024, the licence fee will rise from £159 to £169.50 following the end of the government’s freeze.
The increase is a little lower than the 9% that was originally proposed, which would have meant an annual fee of £173.30.
