It does prove one thing, they really have no business knocking on doors if they're running scared at the prospect of being caught doing so.

What's wrong with being filmed? We are all being filmed 24hrs a day outside so what's the problem?
Traffic wardens are verbally assaulted regularly, do they just walk off?..No they issue tickets as they are permitted to do so.

Yes, they give the ticket and then walk off. Do they hang around putting up with sh*t? No.

The BBC is one of the best cooperations on the planet that delivers quality programming for a ridiculously small figure that I am more than happy to pay.

You have to wonder why they don't just issue the fine then walk away then.

Who says they don't? We have one video of one guy being a dick to people who knock on his door and aren't prepared to stand there being insulted. Not really a conclusive video of all of them.

I suppose they're all taking pictures of 9 year old girls to, apparently that happened in this video too. You know, the BBC only hire pedophiles did you know?

Ah was going to show you how to multiquote but you figured it out.

Maybe they did then maybe they issued the fine then walked away, that part isn't clear is it?
It didn't look like they did to me, we also don't know if the guy really did peep in the window, shame it wasn't caught on film if he did.

Yeah, I'll start multi quoting posts I haven't even seen yet, that makes sense.

Who knew you were so petty?

I don't pay for and I wouldnt consider paying for it. I watch tv an average of like 3 hours a week, and theres websites and apps you can get which show them at a ten second delay, for everything else theres online streaming.

I agree with this. The licence fee is cheap when you think how much people pay for Sky TV, or to watch a film at the cinema. My Dad must pay Ł60 or Ł70 pounds a month for Skyand there's STILL nothing on... and the STILL has to pay a 'pay per view' fee for some football matches... and you have to sit through the adverts. People generally expect stuff for nothing now, they want to watch films free, they want to download music free... you have to pay for quality, I think.

They're going to be changing ours over here to a "media" licence so people can't say I'm not paying cos I don't have a TV anymore

TV license guy called here a few days ago. We have a 'dodgy box' that connects to youtube and that instead of watching live TV now. He tried to tell me that I still needed a license as I had a TV, even if no signal and such is received. He tried to bully me to let him into my house and he was swiftly told nope and a nice polite goodbye and a closed door.

On the TV licence.I do pay as i watch a few things on there(not enough to get my money's worth) but Nobody should be forced to have the BBC.It should be a subscription service.If people don't watch it then they won't get it.If it can't stand up on its own merit then it's obviously not that good in the first place.Nobody should be forced to pay for everone else to watch Eastenders and crappy dancing competitions.
C5 is better anyway Wentworth,Walking Dead etc etc.

My father in law has a 'smart TV' that won't receive any of the bbc channels Not by choice, as he loves Eastenders, just the damn thing gets a snowy mess on all BBC content. Its purely accidental and its annoying him but surely this could be done for the general public? Where you actually could not receive BBC without a license?
