HeadingNorth Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 If you intend to watch it on a television in your own house, yes; but then, if you own a television at home, you need a tv licence in order to turn the set off and not watch it. You're getting billed either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sccsux Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 if you own a television at home, you need a tv licence in order to turn the set off and not watch it. Not if you don't use the TV for watching programmes as they are broadcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy gator Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 If your watching it on tv the answer would be yes, but why would you want to watch the royal wedding anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadingNorth Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Not if you don't use the TV for watching programmes as they are broadcast. I do keep forgetting that exception - probably because when I bought my first television there was no possible other use for the thing except to watch programmes as broadcast!

manofstrad Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Do you need a TV license to watch the Royal Wedding? Depends where you are at the time, some people can watch it through binnoculars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadingNorth Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Perhaps the future King will announce the abolition of the TV license? If he did, he would no longer be the future King. Royalty is absolutely forbidden from interfering in politics with one exception; they can call a general election of their own whim. And they only retain that power because it prevents a fraudulent government from passing Acts of Extension to keep itself in power without ever needing to be elected.
