But that definition is wrong.

The source is of no issue, it is the timing of it.
It is a common known fact that you do not need a TV license to watch TV unless it is being broadcast at the same time, or in other words - watch the TV that is being broadcast.

catch up TV is excluded from the license fee, the content is irrelevent.

So watching what "was" live tv but it is now not live (because it has been delayed) is excluded from the requirements of needing a license.

But you don't need to believe me on this, perhaps go and ask Martin Lewis - he's clever enough to know the ins & outs and his site agrees with what I have said, if he posted incorrect info then there are thousands of those that are ni the know who put him right and it gets changed the same day.
