Are television companies getting lazy?

The majority of prosecutions are for women however. This is most likely because they're more often the ones home during the day when TV Licensing come to visit. I suspect also, though there is some sex based generalisation in this, that on average women would be more intimidated by TV Licensing officers than men. This is part of the reason I would ditch the licence.

The simplest option would be to make it a civil and not criminal offence. There's enough evidence that the "inspectors" behave appallingly towards perceived 'easy' victims, and many videos show how they won't push it with men who tell them to simply get lost.

I've had a run-in with one, and I told him to simply leave the property. He tried the scripted threats, I laughed at him and told him that he could either leave or I'd be calling the police. He gave up quickly, but I'm pretty sure if I'd been a female alone in the house, he wouldn't have left so quickly.

ITV 3 have shown Carry On Dick three weeks in a row.

I just wonder what future television viewers will think of reruns of Michael McIntyre & Mrs Brown’s Boys?

Never understood how that got so popular, it's painful to watch.

i have never found Michael McIntyre entertaining and Mrs Browns Boys became tired very quickly. Even the original Irish version is not funny.

Regarding the return of Mrs. Brown's Boys, I saw a discussion about this on Facebook and the vast majority of comments were negative, but the one that tickled me pink was a a comment saying (dystopian nuclear war drama) Threads contained more laughs. Sad, but true.
