Where did I say that? I said I *think* it's copyright, and gave my reasoning. In this thread we've seen some sound reasons supporting the idea it's copyright, and some (IMO) rather weaker ones saying it's not. Obviously I have asked the BBC and will await their response.
Do you really believe that they can answer objectively when they are the putative copyright holder>
I think their opinion is crucial, since if they see no copyright violation, there can be no claim.
A not copyrighted response would simplify things, but not so for the contrary view.
