It's not clear to me as to whether "none TV licence" refers to not having a TV licence or to a matter unconnected with TV licensing. I'll try to cover it all anyway:
TV Licensing Enforcement Officers have no direct right of access to people's homes. They can, however, approach the police to seek a warrant granting them such access if they believe that an offence is taking place.
Neither the BBC nor TV Licensing employ bailiffs. The only time that a bailiff would call at someone's home in respect of a TV licensing matter would be where that person had been convicted of using TV apparatus without a licence and then, because they'd failed to pay the fine, the court had authorised the use of a bailiff to collect property to the value of the fine (after the expenses of using bailiffs had been deducted). Bailiffs who're enforcing the payment of fines for criminal offences (including for TV licence evasion) ARE allowed to force their way into people's homes but only as a last resort.
With the exception of certain HMRC matters (such as the non-payment of Income Tax or Stamp Duty Land Tax) and the non-payment of criminal fines (as above), bailiffs have no right to force their way into people's homes. If you simply close the door on them, they have no power to enter your home.
