Just seen this on the BBC website, I think we have the talent within this forum to do very well. So come on chaps, get entering.

Interesting. Though you can kiss goodbye to it from then on:

'Where you are invited to submit any contribution to bbc.co.uk (including any text, photographs, graphics, video or audio) you agree, by submitting your contribution, to grant the BBC a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licenseable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, play, make available to the public, and exercise all copyright and publicity rights with respect to your contribution worldwide and/or to incorporate your contribution in other works in any media now known or later developed for the full term of any rights that may exist in your contribution, and in accordance with privacy restrictions set out in the BBC's Privacy Policy. If you do not want to grant to the BBC the rights set out above, please do not submit your contribution to bbc.co.uk.'

So it'll end up in the Beeb's picture library where they'll make the cash, not you. Rather like stealing, really!

Got to admit I didn't read all the detail.
That really is a shocking caveat to maybe, perhaps winning something!
