As much as I love the BBC (I consider it a more important national asset 
for the UK than any of the London monuments), I agree with the criticism 
from Tina and Ted. I participated in the BBC photo of the year 
competition back in 2005 (without much success, one of my Seville 
pictures made the top 10 one month, that's it) but have since completely 
ignored it precisely because of the terms and conditions they impose.
