    I doubt it. You don't have to own a TV to enter the competitions. One person in a household of ten could enter. The TV licence may have nothing to do with them.

    Yes, that's why I always wear my tin-foil hat when I watch the Late-Late.

    But seriously, I don't think it is the case...Plank hasn't had his firmware upgraded in years.

    Does anyone know if they actual ever select anyone who's txted in The Late Late ot Turbridy, as opposed to someone that phones the 1550 number? For some reason, I think they'd just use the phoneline.

    It's true Pat Kenny called around to my house the other day saying I had won a competition. I told him ' F off Pat' your not a patch on Gay Burn, he ran off crying.
    I swear that as they drove off I saw Podge and Rodge consoling him in the back seat of the Limo they turned up in. The limo had a big tv ariel on it and it was being tailed by the guy from the tv license ads shouting out the window 'TV licence inspector', 'TV licence inspector', Podge and Rodge were shouting back 'F' off we're anarchists we don't need a licence we work for RTE'.

    Ps if worse came to worse I was going to drive my car through the front of his house but it didn't come to that, thank god.
