And one has to wonder if they paid for his time, since they had him work, and if they got the legal releases in place before they broadcast him without his consent.
In many cause they could say consent was assumed, as normal one assumes you are in a studio to be filmed. This is an expectation. However, if they specifically said job interview when he was there and not just interview that would change things.

Which is the case here. He was asked to interview for a job. So making the assumption that he was there to be on live TV can't be made. He wasn't even brought in from a studio staging area.

Unless the only reason to be in a studio is to be on television, assuming there are no employees and no support staff and no reason to be doing anything there but be on television, that's a hard assumption to make when no one asks you at the last second if you are accepting being on television - which is itself a release.

That's kind of like grabbing people out of an administration office in a hospital and putting them in surgery. You can't assume just because someone is "in a hospital" that they are there for surgery. Hospitals are full of staff, people interviewing, people visiting, people who are getting better, doctors, nurses, janitors, IT, etc. It's not like taking someone bleeding in the ER and assuming they are okay for surgery. It's taking someone from a business office.

Support staff are assumed to be on release (Grips, Assistants, Teleprompt OPs, Production Asst). Actually they are the few people who will not have a specific likeness release form signed but may still appear on cuts of the live news room before they go live from time to time.

Yeah, but not IT or secretaries.

Pretty sure that BBC, like NBC, commonly has studio tours too. Could easily be random people in that space (which is basically what this was.) I know that many BBC studios have tours and stuff as regular parts of business.

Meh, Studio tours. TV studios are nothing great. They are the simplest form of a studio. Now Film studio tours that would make more sense. The Hobbit was one of the best film setups I've seen.

Honestly for being on the spot like that I think he did an alright job. Although his accent really got in the way of being understandable.
I'm not sure how I would have reacted sitting in his spot.
