Josh: Of course, it's not the BBC that does it. The Licence Fee is collected by a separate agency, who have subcontracted collections to a private company, Capita.

BBC TV Licensing

.

So, yes, they *do* have the resources ("detection" is part of the £93.8m "collection
costs") to "track people down", and they are contractually obliged to do so. - TV Licensing - FOI: About TV Licensing .

Iain Davies: BBC3 serves the audience that it is desgined for, and as a group that have to pay their TV Licence like everyone else, that is fair enough. Just because you don't want to watch it doesn't render the channel "trash".

The BBC has a joint-venture UKTV which puts out archive programmes on pay and free-to-air television.

Here is a list of Z-Cars episodes that survice: missing episodes .

And for Softly, Softly: BBC Online - Cult - Treasure Hunt - The Missing Episodes - Softly, Softly .

The Changes can be got on DVD - The Changes (TV Series 1975) - IMDb .

Jeff Eastmond: Another problem is that channels that show programmes in black and white just don't get watched.
