No it doesn't - if you want to watch free-to-air TV you must buy a license. If you don't it is legal to own a television and not a license - for example to watch DVDs and play videogames.
Granted, the TV Licensing authority tries hard to make people think they must own a license. Check out the letters this guy received when he tried to stop paying - http://www.bbctvlicence.com/
