Non-free fair-use media rationale for Budgie[edit]

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

• Article=Budgie
• Use=Infobox
• Description=A black and white screenshot from the British (ITV) early 1970s television sitcome/series Budgie starring Adam Faith.
• Source=Derived from a scan of a still-shot of the series, (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the television company. Claimed as fair use regardless.
• Portion=Entire portion is used
• Resolution=Is only as much resolution as necessary to identify the television sitcom/series and the actors therein.
• Purpose=Historical significance. The screenshot illustrates the appearance of the sitcom actors (no longer living) in the well-known television series sitcom described in detail in the article. The screenshot does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the film on television or DVDs in any way.
• Replaceability=No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative and would still claimed as fair use regardless)
• Copyright is owned by ITV.
• other information=The screenshot is over 35 years old and actors shown in the scan are now deceased. The image is used for historical informational purposes, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film nor used for financial gain or piracy. Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the television series as part of DVD/video/book catalogs and reviews, so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves.
