Many TV channels are now available to watch over the internet. If you’re 
watching programmes on a computer or laptop as they're being shown on 
TV, then you need a TV Licence. However, you don’t need to be covered by 
a licence if you’re only using ‘on-demand’ services to watch programmes 
after they have been shown on TV. So, you need a licence to watch any 
channel live online, *but you wouldn’t need one to use BBC iPlayer to 
catch up on an episode of a programme you missed, for example.*

Does that explain it?
