This development is excellent news but what popped into my head when I read about it was, "how on earth are the BBC getting all the rights to allow YouTube to do this?" After hearing that Dyke's plan to open the archives was scuppered by a conductor with a short term contract, I assume that the legal beagals have been very, very busy to allow this content to go out?
