I believe the journalist Jonathan Miller is waging a war against
the TV Licencing people.
His website is:

The key info you are after is at:

To summarise:
You do NOT need a TV Licence for owning any kind of TV
receiver/VCR/Satellite receiver/PC with TV-TCard [PC/TV] etc.
When you only use a TV for:
- playing video games
- watch pre-recorded videos [VCR/DVD]*
- closed circuit monitoring [CCD]
- displaying -for example- presentations using your PC
Then "again" you do NOT need a TV licence.
That's true, but I think it's been established that you have to show
that the TV's ability to receive programmes has been disabled -- not
just that you state "I don't use it for that purpose".
