The BBC is the UK's national broadcaster so it has numerous services available throughout the country. At present, there are eight to ten television channels, from entertainment to news and political channels, all free to receive. There are also numerous radio channels covering a wide range of music, news and spoken word. Many of the radio channels are national but there are also local radio channels, each covering a city or group of cities. All BBC television and radio channels are free of commercial advertising. Although the channels are free to watch, UK television users are required to pay a license fee each year of around £140. The revenue from the television license is used to fund the BBC's operations. The BBC also operates the "World Service", television and radio services that cover the world in a multitude of languages. These services are generally not available in the UK because they are transmitted to regional audiences around the world.
