No. They don't. They had a limited, one-use-only right. That right expired upon transmission. They do not have a right to copy, a right to repurpose, a right to sell on DVD or any other format, or a right to rebroadcast. No one has genuine, full copyright at present, but it is explicitly not in the public domain. It's a highly unusual legal situation.

Anyway guys, we're at the tail end of the discussion on DiT. This business of pictures is really us talking about the last scrap on the plate. Time to get up from the table, I fear. One final thought from you both and then we'll close the thread.
