LOL:-) good find.

haha! :)

I wonder how many of us do that once we shoot down a 109? ... Not that I do of course.

This program is the only thing that justifies the TV licence! :D I try to never miss an episode. Brilliant stuff....especially for a Kid's program. I can certainly see how they won the comedy award. :D

Filmed at Duxford :)

Good stuff!

TV license? What's that?

Its the UK, we need a license for everything!
£145.50/$235 a year for the BBC...

.... And considering the quality of new programs we get nowadays, it's one of the biggest rip-offs we've got to put up with!

Back on Topic pls Uther ;)

Not paid for it nor watched it for about 2 years now... If this is the highlights of what Im missing... Glad Ive still got my 145 quid... :-P

hold on watching tv is illegal in the UK ???


(remember a license is a govt authorization or letter of mark, to do something that would otherwise be illegal....)

Yep, because the bbc is state owned and non commercial it is funded by effectively a tv tax (license), no license no tv.

Funny song. Some clever lines :)

Be thankful you have the BBC. The CBC used to be amazing and now it's dying death by a thousand cuts. The television services are horrible and the radio service is slowly losing all regional programming :(

ANYway, back to regularly scheduled hilarity! :)

well because its state owned you know you can trust it....

welcome to the nanny state i hope you like getting licenses before you do ANYTHING...(soon you cant have children with out license, and if you do they use that to justify murder)

its already to the point where children running lemonade stands need licenses to have a lemonade stand in their front yard...

So why does this thread stay here when others get moved to the Pilots Lounge?

Wow, really?
I don't think I would subscribe to the BBC anymore! Plenty of other channels eh?

Doesn't work like that. Have a TV? (or a radio) Need a TV license.

Yep. You have to pay for BBC whether you watch it or not.... If I read the form when paying my licence renewal correctly... I think it now extends to people who own PCs with internet as well just in case someone is sneaky enough to watch the BBC iPlayer without paying. (They've certainly been pushing for that for a few years now)

For many years I didn't even own a TV as, generally, I'd rather kick back and listen to some good music and read a book (Remember them? lol)..... got a TV when the missus moved in. During the time I didn't have one I was constantly being bullied by the licencing guys as they refused to accept that anyone could not want a television. lol

"You prefer thinking for yourself, sir? likely story! Cough up or we'll take you to court" :D

Radio license is scrapped.

You can watch tv via the internet as long as its not in parallel to an actual broadcast... So you can have no license and watch BBC IPlayer... The BBC is not state owned as far as Im aware, and the Licensing "committee" is owned by the BBC although you will never see BBC and the licensing company within 100 metres of each other. I watched this video on youtube where the guy films a TV licensing inspector who ran off... He followed him with the camera to find out what he wanted and the TV licensing guy rang the cops. A cop came (remember the last time a copper came to anything - serious stuff?) and hilarity ensues:

In the end this cop didnt even know why she was there!

Theres nothing they can do and TV detector vans dont exist. They have no power and the only reason you get caught is because you admit it.

I dont need a license cause I dont watch it... You can buy allot of beer for £145... Do you seriously want to pay for talentless celebrities and fat cats who do nothing?

She did know, she was just rendered defenceless by another militant 'rights monkey' who back in the day would have had his collar felt for being obnoxious (which he very much was), fact of the matter is it 'is' a legal requirement to have a TV license (like it or not) if you have a TV, his claim to it not being anybody's business whats in his house is null and void if it's about breaking the law.

Yea hes not very nice but its not the law to be nice... I dont know what he means by "its not a law, its an Act". I assume its a technicality that hes playing on.

I had after 8 months of threating letters (which I didnt find very nice but there was no law against it) threatening me with court and fines of upto £1000 a TV licensing man come to my door. He had a black eye :-P after I found out he wasnt a salesman I was quite nice to him. I let him in and showed him the big empty space where the tv was. He wrote me off the books for a year.

By the way bongo driver, is little britian still on? eh eh eh!

Only re-runs as far as I know, they made another short series which was a parody on an airport documentary called 'come fly with me'...quite funny.....not sure if a second series is coming.
