Top Tip…….when buying anything “TV”,pay cash and refuse to give an address;)

I wonder just how many people without a TV License have been found out by the “Commer Vans with spinning Roof-Racks” ?

I think all detection is done by the TV License database. When it shows someone does not have a TV License someone is sent to find out if they have a TV and if they do then the person in question ends up with a fine.

Topgear finished?

I only watch Countryfile, Top Gear, (which is funded privately and sold to the BBC) and Midlands Today.

Did you hear that their might not be any more topgear!?

I must admit i begrudge paying for the license as i very rarely watch TV, maybe an hour a week at most if i bother at all, and never the BBC, the MRS watches about two to three hours a week and if it wans’t for her i would get rid of it and not have to pay the fee’ any films i have on dvd i could watch on the computer. to be honest i prefer to read. (boring git ain’t i :p )

Nice ones:D 😀
We only seem to have cbeebies on these days they only have ten or so programs and repeat these four times a day.
Btw the BBC must have the biggest revenue of all the terrestrial TV channels ,so how come they take the least risks in TV programming?

probably 10% of my TV viewing is spent on the BBC. how come I don’t have to pay just 10% of the license fee? :confused:
I only watch Countryfile, Top Gear, (which is funded privately and sold to the BBC) and Midlands Today. Hardly worth the unique way in which the BBC is funded.

I really am a Grumpy Old Git today…. sorry.
