No TV Licence

[DaveReading]

I suggest you read the primary legislation, which is quoted upthread. It is very clear: if you have a televisions receiver installed or (note it is 'or' - not 'and') use it for receiving broadcasts you need a licence.

Nothing in the Regulations contradicts that.

I'm afraid it does. If I install and use a TV solely for the purpose of playing my DVDs, I am not contravening any of the provisions of the 2004 Regulations, as quoted above.

Still, if contradictory Acts and Regulations confuse the lawyers, it can't be all bad.

Have TV licensing still got those magic vans that can tell if you have a TV and also which channel you are watching?

They do show non-Premier Scottish football games live and have some decent documentaries.

What's a television?

Do I need a licence for this?

Do I get it cheaper as they're all printed in black and white?

I think anyone with a TV is barred from reading books

Fitba commentary in Gaelic is glorious, poetic almost.

Ball-coise beò le Dundee United a' dol an aghaidh St Mirren ann an cuairt dheireannach Cupa Dùbhlan na h-Alba na bliadhna sa.

Trans: two pish teams are playing live on Saturday. One thought selling their best players to Ra Sellic would be a great idea, without a discernible plan, and the other is St Mirren, which says it all.

Join us to find out who's worst!

their most recent letter to me, told me if I don't contact them and say I don't need a licence, they will visit me and see if I have a TV, but (turns over page) if I do contact them and say I don't need a licence they will visit me and see if I have a TV
I do hope they come round, I get rather lonely through the day with only the radio for company.
