He has the 'necessary authority to inspect a tv'.. ..I can't get over how backwards the UK is for even allowing this in the twentytwenties.

The way the scumbag saw that the TV was not plugged in to the aerial socket - AND THEREFORE UNABLE TO RECEIVE A LIVE TV SIGNAL - and then calmly plugged it in and insisted the householder then turns on the TV hoping he would then receive a live signal was nothing short of entrapment. In Court, this video is powerful evidence that the TV could not receive a live signal UNTIL the BBC scumbag enabled it to do so.

Cocky comes to mind

Police officers should only be turning up if someone ring cos breach of peace not helping doing debt collection

Cops in the family. Police do not want to be there, but under Communications Act 2003 Sec 366, they are obliged to attend. Every cop sees this for the ball-ache and waste of time that it is, to be using the Police to enrich scumbag companies like Capita and the BBC.

@@judebrown2672 man, you must be stupid.

Just cos a TV is capable of receiving signal, does not mean you use it to do so. Most houses have external aerial with a cable in the house. This is not evidence that live signals are watched. Always film prices like them connecting wires n cables etc. It is not an offence to have an aerial and cable. As the owner stated, I can operate my TV power with remote other than TV remote. Again, not evidence live signals are watched. We all know they use false information to obtain warrants etc. His TV is not visible from street etc show can they obtain warrent without sufficient evidence that an offence is being committed and why do the police allow this?

@@Magpie74 what a load of shit. Why the hell would there be an aerial lead running from his tv, all the way over to the socket and then both the power and aerial unplugged?

@@wahidkhaliq4776 Sorry you're going through that brother. They don't have any real authority. You can watch videos that explain how to deal with them. The easiest way is to go on their website or write to them and tell them you don't require a license as you don't watch live broadcasts (whether you do or not) they have no way to confirm otherwise unless you are tricked into letting them in. You don't have to answer their questions, and you don't have to open the door to them. They won't get a warrant that allows them to break down your door. The furthest they will go is turning up with what they _claim_ to be a warrant, that is just signed by a JP and doesnt allow them to force access. I've seen videos of them trying this and the ones who were smart enough to still refuse them they go away sulkily saying they will get a warrant. If they had one, why would they need one? Fill in their form online and if they send someone out, you dont have to deal with them. You dont even have to give them your name. As soon as you hear TV license, shut the door.

Its not entrapment, its the tv people fixing up the offence then pinning the offence they set up on him...or trying to, and when that failed went for double jeapordy with trying to obstruct.

And the home owner just happened to have those cables right next to where they needed to be plugged into.

If that had been me and they said it was not their investigation I would have asked why they were there and politely ask them to leave my property.

It's basically racketeering. Bullying people into paying for something they neither want or need. BBC are an insidious organisation. I hope they go bust. As soon as the TV license ends, the BBC will end. No one will pay for their shite.

Because ITV is soo much better

ITV is unwatchable trash. Channel 4 is the best solution, publicly owned like BBC but with adverts. The TV licence is really expensive for what you get, £12.56/month for a single network which has too low a budget to make shows which look good (see Dr Who) or give interesting prizes on quiz/game shows (e.g. £1000/episode top prize rolling over each show). Compare you what can you get for similar or less money from e.g. Netflix.

I just think people don't know when there are onto a mostly good thing. I know it's not perfect, but people in the States would give their right arms for TV without ads.
