BBC to appeal after losing Sir Cliff Richard privacy case

The BBC said journalists acted in good faith and it is considering an appeal. Speaking outside the High Court in London, the BBC's director of news and current affairs Fran Unsworth apologised to Sir Cliff and said: "In retrospect, there are things we would have done differently." But, she said, the case marked a "significant shift" against press freedom and an "important principle" around the public's right to know was at stake.
