A wider question. Is there any limitation on filming in a public place?
If you are in a public place, do you have any right to prevent someone
from filming your behaviour - and later showing it to others (i.e.
broadcasting it)?
The Film and Video Institute[1] offer the following summary:
"What can I do? :– You can photograph and film people in public places.
You can film from a public highway. You can film the police in the
street, whether dealing with an incident or just ‘on the beat’. Even if
you are asked to stop filming you can keep any footage you may have
already shot. You can film children in public places but it is wise to
try to obtain permission if possible.
What can’t I do? :– You cannot film on private property without
permission. Shopping Centres are particularly strict about this, as are
Bus, Train and other transport operators. Finding the right people to
ask can sometimes be difficult but, once permission is sought it is
often granted. You are unlikely to get permission to film defence
establishments, like naval dockyards and military bases. You cannot film
the police inside a private building. You cannot film people if they
have a legitimate expectation of privacy, for instance in their home and
garden."
[1] No. I hadn't heard of them either.
