    For completeness, this is the BBC/TVL form for "No Licence Needed".    It's not very good - not just the swapping of the sense of the questions, but the lack of robust definitions/explanations for important terms like "TV", "live" and "foreign channels".  

    The correct sequence for someone who doesn't require a TV Licence is:  No, No, No, No, Yes, Yes.
