Read in the times today something about photos posted on the BBC digital picture of Britain having copyright ownership transfered to the BBC?

Not copyright, as far as I'm aware, that would be off. I need to check.

Nope:
"The BBC reserves the right to publicly display all entries and to publish any images to promote the BBC, and/or the photography competition. Copyright will remain with the photographer."
I wouldn't have done it otherwise.

Hmm, Then the Times 1/2 inch was wrong - something about photographers claiming that they were going to use it to build a stock photo library as they gained copyright!

Good - glad they arn't being shitty :)

That would probably be one of the greatest scandals ever and get the BBC into very deep shit.

Oh Yeah!

Found the story however:

Wrong image

Photographers have accused the BBC of using its A Digital Picture of Britain series on BBC Four to build a commercial library for free. Masterclasses are followed by competitions for which amateurs have sent in more than 50,000 images but small print makes clear that the BBC gains copyright rights.

Thank you!
They are lovely, too, not just their photos. :o)
They live in London and I visit them regularly for nights out.
