Still do. On one hand it's ridiculous that you need a license to own a TV. But on the other hand it's thanks to the license fee that the BBC makes some reasonably intelligent and interesting TV programs, you know TV that actually engages the mind, otherwise they'd just screen wall-to-wall soap operas, reality shows and bloody singing competitions like every other TV station.
