Michael, I wouldn't advise you put your telly through a neighbour's window in some vague attempt to evade the TV licence fee. That just wouldn't go down to well!
There bringing in a test for it now and learner permits which stops you watching tv unaccompanied unless there's someone beside you with a full liscence
I was in this clip.Thats me sitting on the end of the sofa with the beard and leather jacket.Also did the s.w.a.t team clip!Great crack!Excuse the pun!
Bit late to the game but it reminds me when they brought a TV detector van to the Creggan Estate in Derry in the 80s. I think it was less than hour before it was hijacked and burnt out. BBC, my arse.
mogadishusneeze I agree and that's the same thing for those who watched this in Northern Ireland where they had to pay TV licences for both RTÉ & BBC TV programmes provided they have access to Irish TV channels alongside British TV channels for £145.50 which is$177.51 for today's exchange rate on XE since £1=$1.22 but if you are in Ireland it's about $176 since €1=$1.10
If you start a tv channel funded by ads so your viewers can watch for free, any viewers in Ireland would still have to pay this tv licence and all of the money goes to rte and bbc. It essentially outlaws free live tv throughout Ireland.

In Ireland 🇮🇪 the government pick the people who they argue with on live TV debates, a lot of Native Irish people are not happy with the amount of mass migration coming to Ireland, we are not allowed to suggest a discussion without being called a racist, while young Native irish people cant afford to buy a house here in Ireland their own country anymore, because of to many people coming here and to much demand for these hoses, forcing men and women still living at home up to their 50s still living at their family home, because they can't buy a home, while watching young men who claim they are asylum seekers come here, and we know they are realy economic migrants, coming for a financial better life, while a lot of irish people are dieing from suicide, or else moving out of Ireland to a more affordable country to live, becoming a burden on another country's housing and causing a ripple affect including our carbon emissions rising from mass migration and our extra population
The thing about T.V. Licenses..... You are threatened with letters, phone calls,,Debt Agency's FUCK THEM Do not pay and what happens? You get thrown in JAIL WITH FREE T.V.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just recently watched something about the " magical vans and TV licenses". As an American I had heard of the licenses. But the idea of the magical van had me LMAO.
We, and every European country have a national broadcasting service. The tv license funds public service broadcasting. An American example would be PBS that has to rely on commercials to exist. Most National tv stations dont show adds. However, I'm sorry to say Irish television, because of our small population, takes adds as well. The best example of public funded broadcasting is the UK,s BBC. They export documentaries all over the world, so they would get some money back, or even make a profit.
noel owen thanks for the reply. I was in Ireland 20 years ago and I remember watching the tv and seeing an ad for corn flakes cereal. It’s just interesting to see the small differences in how things work around the world. American television is about 25 to 30% advertising. It’s very annoying. Thanks again for responding.
Unfortunately the irish government still has to much of a say in RTE and when it comes to public debates, the critiques are hand picked by government, and this is not fare because we all know there are two sides to all arguments, and why should we watch RTE when we can watch the likes of Joe Rogan or Philip Dwyer instead,
nice programme clip and for the 160 euro tv license ,but £145.50 for northern ireland they are about $180 a year but $191.08 a year for Northern Ireland and United Kingdon if both the British pounds used in Northern Ireland and Euros in Ireland were converted to US dollars (€1 =$1.13, but £1= $1.31 for Northern Ireland & U.K. from Todays exchange rate). the solution is that eat both Ireland (ComReg) and the United Kingdom (Ofcom) should adapt U.S. tv licensing regulations in which the FCC gives TV licences to TV stations rather than ordinary households
Do you still need a TV License if you watch the TV through your neighbours window?

I'm really late to the game, but thats fuckin' hilarious mate. Would have paid to see it. We've never had TV licences in Australia.
haha im rolling around laughing the only way to watch telly free is to go to the pub with one drink and stay all night love rep of telly
So RTE make something like this...which is also evidence why most people refuse to buy a TV license.

Telly licence inspectors are effectively the irish equivalent to the D.E.A. in the states
That one is brillant!!!!
Watching without a license, feel like such a badass. Lol
The 23 people that disliked this video are TV license inspectors

The way Bernard says "fucking brilliant" is fucking brilliant.

The thing about T.V. Licenses.....
You are threatened with letters, phone calls,,Debt Agency's
FUCK THEM Do not pay and what happens?

They say only €160 a year
The garda have little baton. TV inspectors have guns.
Wow only €160!
$180 due to €1=$1.13

So is a TV license the equivalent to paying for cable or something? Or like, paying for specific channels like HBO or FX
Bryan Liguori that’s entirely separate altogether
@@annelyam3530 , thanks for that explanation.....🙄
It's basically a telly tax
Tell us about your magical vans that scan for televisions... And about all your nice illegal guns...
I just recently watched something about the " magical vans and TV licenses". As an American I had heard of the licenses. But the idea of the magical van had me LMAO.
@@cgustafson240I think there’s some controversy about whether the vans ever really worked, or if they were just an intimidation tactic.

this is pretty much how the bbc operates

You need a license to watch TV?
No, TVs work fine without a licence. They do need electricity though.
they call it a license but its just another state tax in this shithole of a country
Wtf is going on in Ireland 🇮🇪 😳
From the states here....do you really need to buy a license to own a tv in Ireland?
flip inheck that’s just freaking bizarre. Thanks for the reply though.

flip inheck that still blows my mind that need a license to own a broken tv. Wtf?
flip inheck do you need a license to have a radio?
Harsh but fair. 😃
What the fuck is a TV license?
It's a €160 licence every Irish person with a colour tv has to pay each year. It's to pay for our national broadcasting channel(RTE)
It's a revenue scam which I won't fall for
Lucky you!
