TV licence

You must have a TV Licence if you watch or record television programmes as they're broadcast, or download and watch BBC programmes on iPlayer – live, catch up or on demand. The BBC had agreed to foot the bill for TV licences for the over 75s, but have now told pensioners they must pay if they are not in receipt of pension credits. Find the latest on the BBC TV licence row here.
