Last night ITV showed the first episode of Houdini and Doyle.
If you want to see the rest of the series you have to subscribe to Sky to watch it on ITV Encore
I think it's outrageous.

No you don't, the license fee does not pay for ITV, they get their money from adverts.
The license fee pays for having a TV receiver in your house, then much of the money from the license fee goes to fund the BBC not ITV.
So ITV have made the choice to show this program on ITV Encore, maybe they got a "fee" from Sky to do encourage them to do that.
But if it was not for the money ITV got from Sky (if indeed they did give ITV money) you would not have seen episode 1 at all.
Too many people have had "free" TV for years, but the days of free TV are coming to an end. Even the BBC may become a "pay to view" service in the future, maybe for certain BBC programs or certain BBC channels.
