I had an interesting conversation with a senior BBC
exec on this the
other day. Apparently, their lawyers aren't sufficiently comfortable with the
copyright violation checking on Wikimedia Commons to be able to rely on free

for an image, and hence be able to sue them if they had copyright problems,
than get it for free.
