    d. watching the TV you didn't have a licence for

    Um I thought the person with the TV facing the wall used to have a TV license, but stopped paying as they no longer have time to watch broadcast TV. Maybe I've got the wrong end of the stick, or maybe some of the facts have been obscured by the distraction of talk of TVs facing walls.

    All TV's face walls.

    (Apart from those that face doors or windows*.) :D

    You don't need a licence to laugh at me (yet) and of course when you watched Jonathan Ross it was

    a. live
    b. on DVD
    c. through a chance meeting at Tesco's
    d. watching the TV you didn't have a licence for

    I assume this quoting business is just too hard to get the hang of?

    i have paid for a television licence for many years and i had a valid licence when the BBC/TVL came banging on my door late evening.

    The problem here is i have to deal with them and you don't.

    Another expert on a subject he knows nothing about pity they don't come in little quote boxes, I would know who to turn to for advice.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Getting better i know have little faces laughing at someone.
  • giraffe69 Here is a question for you with you being such a clever person why when they called at my property did they not prosecute me for watching live transmissions on my television.

    A, Had a valid licence
    B, Felt sorry for me watching their crap
    C, His Biro ran out of ink

    The fact TV Licensing has told them to walk away if a camera is present shows they have something to hide

    I use a camera to prove to BBC luvvies that these BBC/TVL people do call , strange how most of them don't like to threaten you when facing a video camera.

    You may find it odd, I find people who watch Eastenders and breakdfast television odd
