It's only a civil offence though not criminal so if taken to court it's a fine no criminal record.

But if you don’t/can’t pay the fine…

Was he the lone York supporter among the 900,000 from City at York?

Think so - his whitty(sp?) retorts of 'shitty City' and 'shit team no fans' were a welcome break from the onfield action........

It is an offence under Section 363 of the Communications Act 2003 to watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service, or use BBC iPlayer* on any device without a valid TV licence.

Define 'live'. If you are streaming over t'internet then there is always a lag, even if just a few seconds. Therefore not 'live'....

That's fine, I choose to break the law because I dislike the BBC. It maybe helpful to you if you know how to deal with these people, but that's your choice.

But surely if you dislike the BBC then you won't be watching any of their programmes to break the law. What you really mean is, you want free stuff rather than paying for it.

I just turn on my Smart TV and the programmes appear so I don’t know if it’s on t’internet. :-)
Mind you I record most of the programmes so I’m not watching it live. ;-) *lol*

I get good programmes and so I don’t object really to paying the TV Licence. The only thing I object to is that, like all over 75s, I had a free TV licence and they took it away. :-)

What I mean is I don't watch any of the BBC, however by law you need a TV licence to watch live TV so I choose not to pay it and line the pockets of an organisation that shields pedeofiles.

You don’t fool me Eccles Blue, I see this for what it is ….. a shameless attempt to get Bluemoon members to crowdfund your TV license

There's lag no matter how you watch "live" but good luck in trying that argument with a judge.
