We can leave the whether or not publicly-funded work like this should belong to the public (no not the Crown) so I understand that this is theirs to license how they see fit... but this license stinks.
It's non-commercial. It has huge moral use clauses. It basically limits your use to the same standards the BBC is required to keep at broadcast.
And you have to give a credit. And you can't use too much of it (lest somebody think you're sponsored by the BBC). And you cannot denature the collection or remove tracking or branding from it.
AAAAAnd you have to remove files from your copy when they ask. This is a revocable license.
