As before, you still need a TV Licence to watch or record live TV on any channel, on all devices.
We have recently conducted a survey which demonstrates that many households struggle to understand TV terminology.

Hide AdSome phrases are very familiar to TV viewers but others are less well-known, including important terms such as ‘on demand’.
The survey revealed that almost ten per cent of people in the South East mistakenly think the term means a subscription or rental service, rather than TV content which is available anytime, anywhere, whenever you want at a time to suit you.
