No, the risk of getting caught is low, but the potential harm is high, especially if maliciously enforced: the remedy is simple, as there is plenty of public domain or creative commons material available: and being able to demonstrate a generally diligent response to issues of IP and copyright makes it easier to defend claims when we do slip up. It's not rocket science.
So there's no other issue, other than copyright in the event the potentially infringing material was removed and the same video resubmitted?
Which "same video"? I'm not aware there is or was any "potentially infringing material" in the current introductory video. It's a complete red herring caused by an inefficient EC confusing the content of the current video with a much shorter one made two years earlier which did not refer to the party but which may have had copyright issues.

That is the courts would be unwilling (probably) to uphold my copyright (and arguably, as I was an agent of the party there, it's also arguable the copyright belongs to the party), but unarguably the footage belongs to the BBC and that culd be enforceable. If in any doubt, ask permission, that's a lot safer.

Gnome,What do you make of the following from YMS (#277), in reply to my "fair enough assumption"?

If you assume you make an ASS of U & ME. *Badum tish*Crap corporate joke. Point being assumptions don't help in a court case, if it gets that far. Generally we'd have to surrender at the first take down notice.

I don't think there is any danger of TV companies going after us, but the chances are increased as long as we keep publicising this possibility…..
