when ever we went out on an exercise the post office reported that TV license sales in that area suddenly increased!!
when we worked out of a place near newcastle we were told that during that week they went up by at least 600 households!!
lol
Reminds me of when I was at the BBC 25 years ago. "Breakfast Time" had it's own newsgathering Transit van to do the on-location coverage of various news items. It was bristling with antennae including an ominous-looking pair of rods on a huge extendible mast. On several occasions it had to abandon a shoot because the locals insisted it was really a TV detector van and were getting too hostile for an interruption-free interview to be broadcast. :lol
