Youtube video ok under fair use? edit

I've added an external link to a Youtube video of part of a Mulligrubs episode. The youtube user found it at the end of an old VHS tape and thought it was interesting for historical reasons. Though normally such a youtube video (video of a copyright tv show) would be a copyright violation (so WP shouldn't link to it per WP:YOUTUBE), I think this youtube video would qualify as Fair use because:

  • Mulligrubs has not been on TV for 15 years and is unlikely to ever be on tv again, so no profits are affected.
  • There are no other images or videos of the show anywhere that I can see, so it is reasonable use (in terms of general interest and educational value) to have a sample to see somewhere.

But I'd welcome other opinions. Adpete (talk) 07:39, 4 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
