Why we're here:
This blog is to highlight the unjust persecution of legitimate non-TV users at the hands of TV Licensing. These people do not require a licence and are entitled to live without the unnecessary stress and inconvenience caused by TV Licensing's correspondence and employees.

If you use equipment to receive live broadcast TV programmes, or to watch or download BBC on-demand programmes via the iPlayer, then the law requires you to have a TV licence and we encourage you to buy one.

Technical Problems Plague BBC Website


Much of the BBC website has been down this morning, as the Corporation experiences what it describes as "technical issues" with its online service.

A Tweet by the BBC Press Office says: "We're aware of a technical issue affecting the BBC website and are working to fix this now. We'll update you as soon as we can."

The glitch has affected the BBC News, Sport, Weather and iPlayer pages, to name but a few.

Sadly the BBC hopes to resume normal service soon. Indeed as we type this we can see that some pages are coming back online.

Update: The BBC has now confirmed that its web services were disrupted this morning as a results of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack.
