As long as you don't watch or record TV as it is broadcast you do not need a license. Try explaining that to the morons who work there though!

We keep getting letters from them "You don't have a TV license" - aye, I don't watch TV. Then I get another identical letter. Same answer chaps, I still don't have TV!!
Now they say they're going to come round and investigate (uninvited too) Well good luck with that You'll need a warrant, and some way of getting past the dog.
Don't let them in even if they do have a warrant, the police will be there, but its a scare tactic, they have no powers of entry!
I was sure that if the police are there and they do indeed have a correct warrant then they'll come in if you want them to or not? Stropping them is obstruction surely? Especially if they've gotten a court order permitting entry (warrant)?
