Jack and Vera Duckworth get targeted by BBC TV Licensing using a fake tv detector van and a pair of gestapo goons. This video provides one example of how BBC TV Licensing have paid ITV to produce propaganda storylines based around being caught without a TV Licence. If you are in any doubt about whether this video is an example of paid TVL propaganda, simply look at how the story unfolds. It contains everything that the BBC wants you to think about the consequences of not having a TV Licence. Here is the message that BBC TV Licensing wants to get across in this storyline: * If you forget to re-new your TV Licence then you are a despicable criminal who has committed a heinous offence by defrauding her Majesty's most highly valued public service. * If you don't have a TV Licence, you will almost certainly go to prison. * Life is boring without a TV, 99.9999999% of people watch TV, and those who claim they don't are automatically deemed to be liars. * An extremely powerful and effective "TV detector van" will be deployed to catch you in the act of watching TV, literally as soon as you turn it on, and this evidence will be used in court to convict you. * At any time, day or night, gestapo goons have the authority to barge into your home to gather evidence to use against you. * You'll be up in front of a magistrate within a matter of days. * If you don't have a TV Licence then all of your family, friends and neighbours will look upon you with disgust and consider you to be nothing more than a stupid, drunken, sponger who deserves to be hanged. * BBC TV Licensing have done you a massive favour even after they've stiffed you for £150 and made your life a misery. This particular storyline ran for a few episodes but I have condensed it all into one short video for your convenience. I have provided links to the full episodes below. As you'll see, this TV Licensing storyline was shown in the same episodes as a storyline about thieves who stole some lead from a church roof. This was obviously done in order to ensure that viewers would associate TV Licence "evaders" with the likes of thieves who steal from a place of worship... a very simple but clever way to condition people's minds! You'll need to watch the full episodes to see the subtle way in which they do this. One good thing they do reveal in this storyline is that under no circumstances should you give your name to TV Licensing. Every piece of info you give them will only be used as a stick to beat you over the head with. So NEVER respond to their letters, NEVER talk to them at the door, and NEVER EVER let them into your home. In conclusion then, we can safely say that TV Licensing adverts are not reserved only for the commercial breaks. They can be included in soap drama storylines on all TV channels to enable BBC TV Licensing to get their fear-mongering across more effectively.
