Loved it.

Charlie could do a whole show just featuring Sky News! Wink I'm surprised he didn't mention Gazza re the Raoul Moat story but brilliant all the same.


Was Gazza actually on any of the TV news coverage, other than mentioned afterwards? I was sure he did an interview for Real Radio and it was that which was widely reported.


He was mentioned heavily on Sky News on the Friday Night around 10pm until about an hour before Moat killed himself. Think Sky even played out the interview

This doesn't cover use of still images (which are covered by separate rules and are much trickier to use)
As covered by Charlie in a previous episode - I can't easily find a clip of it at the moment, but he illustrated his point by holding up a photo of John Selwyn Gummer (and then possibly insulted him, in order to make it count as 'comment' and not have to pay for the photo)

I think that was one of the guides to TV or something?

I think that might be on the first ever episode of Screenwipe.
