No TV Licence? (UK)
Our enquiry officers have heard them all. A lot of the time, it's the same old story. Sometimes, it's the kind of story they feel they have to share.
The Red light - Destroyer of Damp
A woman claimed to the enquiry officer that she did not have a TV, even though he could see one behind her in the corner of the room. When he asked her about it she exclaimed, "Oh, that one…it's broken". He told her that there was a red light on at the bottom. She replied "Oh, that wee red light, I just keep that on as it keeps the damp from getting into it".
Bang the Television
A woman in a village claimed she only had a black and white television but when the enquiry officer asked if he could see it she quickly told him that there must be something wrong with it because if she hit it, it would sometimes come on in colour. She allowed him into her living room and proceeded to hit the television before switching it on. Sure enough, the television came on in colour. "there you are" she said, "see what I mean, there's something wrong with it".
Sky or SKY
When interviewing a woman in London, an enquiry officer asked during the conversation if she had Sky. "Yes", she replied. He proceeded to ask her what channels she watched on Sky and she answered, "I haven't got Sky". A little confused, the enquiry officer reminded her that she had just told him that she had Sky. "Yes, that's right, she's in the pram." She replied, pointing to her daughter.
Christmas Lights
An enquiry officer visited an address one evening where the curtains were open and a television set could be seen clearly - in use - in the lounge. When the occupier came to the door, he strongly denied having a set, saying that the enquiry officer had mistaken his Christmas tree light for a TV. The enquiry officer asked to go in and have a look, but was denied entry while the curtains were quickly closed. He went back to his car nearby to write out his report. A couple of minutes later he was surprised to see the husband and wife come out of the house carrying the TV. They put the set into the boot of the car and drove off.
The Vicious Tomcat
A young woman said that she didn't have a television and the enquiry officers asked if they could check. The woman said it was safe only as far as the hallway, as she would have to remove her cat, which was hostile and vicious towards strangers. The officers said that they would take a chance, but the lady insisted that it would be too dangerous, so the officers were left in the hall whilst she disappeared into the lounge. At that moment a ginger tomcat appeared from the kitchen. The officers stood rooted to the spot as this feline meowed and purred towards them, and then started to stroke itself against their legs. At the same time, the movement of furniture could be heard from the lounge, only to be interrupted by the occasional call of "come here Tilly you naughty cat" and "I won't be a minute, I've nearly caught him". The officers by this time had picked the cat up and were playing with it. One of them called through the door "What colour is the cat?" The lady replied "Ginger, with a red collar". The description perfectly matched that of the cat in the hall. A minute later the lady appeared saying that it was OK to enter, so the officer returned the cat to her, and retrieved the television set from the balcony.
The Sick Cat
The woman claimed that the reason for her not having a licence was because her cat had got sick down the back of the set and blew it up.
I Don't Live Here
Most enquiry officers come across the excuse "I don't live here". It's surprising how many are men dressed only in boxer shorts with nothing on their feet and have "just popped round to feed the dog".
The Wife
But the most common reaction from men confronted by TV Licensing enquiry officers is: "Oh, I thought my wife was dealing with it."

【 明 報 專 訊 】 一 對 夫 婦 聲 稱 上 周 六 晚 在 城 門 郊 野 公 園 與 「 虎 」 相 遇 , 雙 方 隔 ? 營 幕 對 峙 10 分 鐘 , 其 間 「 虎 嘯 頻 頻 」 , 幸 好 「 老 虎 」 不 久 自 行 離 去 , 兩 人 受 驚 報 警 , 難 道 香 港 是 否 繼 鱷 魚 後 又 現 虎 蹤 ﹖
漁 護 署 相 信 , 令 該 對 夫 婦 受 驚 的 「 疑 兇 」 是 香 港 罕 見 的 豹 貓 , 但 動 物 專 家 則 有 保 留 , 估 計 可 能 是 「 聲 大 夾 惡 」 的 野 豬 。 專 家 稱 , 無 論 「 疑 兇 」 的 真 正 身 分 是 什 麼 也 毋 須 驚 慌 , 因 為 香 港 野 獸 都 很 「 騰 雞 」 , 殺 傷 力 低 , 市 民 應 珍 惜 這 難 得 的 「 相 聚 一 刻 」 。
自 從 上 周 末 有 市 民 報 稱 郊 野 公 園 出 現 虎 蹤 , 漁 護 署 連 續 兩 天 派 員 搜 索 , 均 無 發 現 。
漁 護 署 濕 地 及 動 物 護 理 主 任 黃 始 樂 昨 晨 在 一 個 電 台 節 目 中 表 示 , 初 步 估 計 市 民 遇 上 的 是 貓 科 動 物 豹 貓 。 漁 護 署 在 全 港 郊 野 裝 設 超 過 100 部 紅 外 線 攝 影 機 , 監 察 野 生 生 物 動 態 , 經 常 發 現 豹 貓 及 野 豬 的 蹤 ? 。
但 嘉 道 理 農 場 動 物 及 保 育 部 高 級 經 理 艾 加 里 指 出 , 豹 貓 身 形 和 家 貓 差 不 多 , 喜 歡 吃 老 鼠 、 鳥 和 鳥 蛋 , 對 人 類 食 物 沒 興 趣 , 故 不 會 去 嗅 營 幕 , 而 且 叫 聲 不 兇 猛 , 又 怕 人 ﹕ 「 牠 頂 多 會 好 奇 地 盯 ? 你 , 不 久 便 會 逃 之 夭 夭 。 」 豹 貓 是 瀕 臨 絕 種 動 物 , 全 港 只 有 2 至 3 個 豹 貓 家 族 , 分 佈 在 新 界 , 每 家 族 由 「 一 公 一 ? 」 和 兒 女 組 成 。
重 組 案 情 後 , 艾 加 里 認 為 真 兇 應 該 是 野 豬 , 「 野 豬 較 大 隻 , 叫 聲 很 駭 人 , 而 且 愛 吃 人 類 殘 羹 , 故 會 走 近 營 地 , 加 上 牠 的 蹄 聲 響 亮 , 奔 跑 時 會 令 人 以 為 牠 身 驅 龐 大 」 。
嘉 道 理 農 場 動 物 保 育 主 任 高 保 然 說 , 他 的 後 花 園 有 野 豬 定 時 出 沒 , 會 吼 叫 , 會 跑 步 , 但 他 從 不 驚 慌 , 「 我 在 香 港 郊 外 15 年 , 與 野 豬 、 赤 ? 、 豹 貓 等 相 遇 多 次 , 從 沒 有 問 題 。 」
艾 加 里 認 為 , 市 民 可 與 野 生 動 物 碰 面 毋 須 驚 慌 , 反 而 應 該 感 到 慶 幸 , 「 香 港 的 動 物 很 膽 小 , 對 人 類 沒 什 麼 威 脅 , 你 應 該 珍 惜 並 享 受 與 動 物 相 遇 的 機 會 」 。 他 建 議 露 營 人 士 應 先 蒐 集 資 料 , 增 加 對 野 外 動 物 的 認 識 , 了 解 動 物 的 外 貌 、 叫 聲 , 偶 遇 時 便 不 會 反 應 過 敏 , 他 不 相 信 香 港 會 有 老 虎 或 豹 出 沒 。

記者葉宜欣╱台北報導
「問人所不敢問」已成小S主持的風格,總是一臉嚴肅的連戰,昨天和連方瑀、連勝文同上節目,面對主持人小S和蔡康永的麻辣問題,完全招架不住,包括連戰愛穿高腰四角內褲、到29歲還是處男等秘密「全都露」,讓在場的人捧腹大笑。
連戰接受「康熙來了」節目訪問,主持人蔡康永笑言:「這真的是我們訪問的來賓裡,最接近『皇帝』的人了吧。」錄影一開始,小S就單刀直入詢問連戰的「私密話題」,「戰哥,請問你都穿什麼款式的內褲?在家穿的跟在外頭穿的一樣嗎?」讓蔡康永瞪大了眼,沒想到連戰正經八百的回答:「有八成是穿四角的… 」小S追問道:「那有拉很高嗎?」從沒被問過這種問題的連戰想了兩秒:「是拉得滿高的。」現場立刻陷入瘋狂爆笑。
小S接下來問,如果連勝文向爸媽提出「出櫃」說,他們會有什麼反應?連戰以黑色幽默反將一軍:「我會以比較開闊的角度面對,絕對不會說這是『天譴』啦!」小S再問:「如果他們在你面前舌吻呢?」連戰依舊沉穩地表示:「那應該是比較技術層面的問題吧!太細節的事,我不考慮。」連方瑀也笑說:「感情的事,我都讓他自己料理。」笑談間,連方瑀也受到感染,不知不覺爆出連戰29歲還是處男的秘辛。
讓小S期待許久的連勝文,不但主動跟小S寒暄,也帶了批高中死黨和小S見面。一陣子沒談戀愛的小S,馬上被蔡康永糗道:「小S,我看妳就從這些人當中,挑個人嫁了吧!」連戰也夠意思的表示,如果能讓小S當媳婦,真是三生有幸。小S表示,「想不到戰哥和戰嫂好直率!倒是連勝文比較客氣,我看連勝文以後很適合去從政!」
