(2) An act in subsection (1) may be done by —(a) the reception of a cable programme; or (b) using any record, print, negative, tape or other article on which a cable programme has been recorded. (3) To the extent that a cable programme consists of visual images —(a) any copyright in the programme extends to any sequence of those images that is sufficient to be seen as a moving picture; and (b) to show an infringement of any copyright in the programme, it is not necessary to prove that the act in question extends beyond any sequence that is so sufficient.
