Common card · No. 396723

TV detector vans are claimed to be vehicles used by the General Post Office and later by contractors working for the BBC to enforce the television licensing system in the UK, the Channel Islands and on the Isle of Man. According to the BBC, they contain equipment that can detect television sets in use in private homes. While the presence of the vans was widely publicized in 20th century Britain, and the technology they allegedly use has been described in official documents, the media have often speculated that detector vans are a scare tactic and do not really contain any TV-detecting equipment.
