Abstract [en]

This article surveys the scope of protection for television programme formats under English intellectual property law. It discusses what is meant by a 'TV format' and the growth in this phenomenon, and looks at the requirements for being a copyright work under English law and the circumstances in which such a work will be infringed, concluding that the law in this area is at best uncertain.
