Broadcasting judges’ sentencing remarks is one way of increasing justice system transparency, so people can see justice being delivered.

Authorised media can film sentencing remarks in the Crown Court, including in some of the most high-profile courts across the country, such as the Central Criminal Court (Old Bailey).

Protecting victims and witnesses
Only the judge and their sentencing remarks can be filmed. Authorised media cannot film any other court user – including defendants, victims, witnesses, jurors and court staff.

Filming is subject to the usual reporting restrictions, so authorised media may need to edit footage before it’s broadcast.

The Ministry of Justice retains copyright of the footage but does not hold the footage.
