The What's Good on TV Thread Vs. S'all Good Man

Watching that now Marmz, not giving it my full attention though.

 

[Marmalade]

need to pay attention really cause it's based on tension and jumps and whatnot

Just saw the teaser with Dobby in it for the new series of Peep Show .. wooohoo, can't wait for it to start

I really hope that's good. The last two series were a bit of a letdown imho ymmv etc... looking back I see a shark jumping (from the canal...) when jez took a bite of dead dog. As far as I remember it was the first time either he or Mark had done something completely unlikely to happen in real life. That became a pattern in later episodes and I disliked it intensely.

Yes.

actually there is a lot of debate on that. It's genuinely seen that if you have a TV then you need a license, even a laptop with access to iplayer too. I'm not sure of the exact laws now but they are trying to get everyone with a computer to get a TV Licence.

You should be fine as long as you don't have an obvious aerial cable running from the TV to the wall.

 

[parttime crackhead]

There is no debate whatsoever on whether you need a TV licence to use a TV as a screen to hook an Xbox, laptop, DVD player etc up to. You definitely do not.

 

[TheSpade]

I have never looked into into but I heard having a TV meant you needed a licence regardless of what you planned to do with it. Fuck TV licences though.

 

[adam west]

spade are you doing the charity thing too?
