I witnessed a crime
Freddy Woo writes, "A group of us once staggered home so insensible with drink that we failed to notice someone being killed and buried in a shallow grave not more than 50 yards away. A crime unsolved to this day."
Have you witnessed a crime and done bugger all about it? Or are you a have-a-go hero?
Whatever. Tell us about it...

Ah, but...
The way I understand it, they decide which houses to visit based on the correlation between TVs bought (and addresses given) and licenses applied for. Since I never receive letters at my flat about having or not having a licence, it's safe to assume that I'm on no record. They would only catch me if they came to stand outside my flat at night and look up three floors to see whether I'm watching a flickering light - and even then it could be a laptop. They'd have to prove beyond all doubt that I had a TV (me not having left any record of having bought one) without getting into my flat. Because I wouldn't let them in without a warrant.
[ This is not the case in houses which owned a TV at some stage in the past - the ones that receive constant reminders.]
