This image is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (User:Sue Wallace) believe it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because it is being used as follows:

• Article = Rising Damp
• Use = Infobox
• Description = Low resolution b/w screenshot of a notable 1970s television comedy series (sitcom) Rising Damp.
• Source = http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/R/htmlR/risingdamp/risingdampIMAGE/risingdamp.jpg (creator of this image is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by ITV (a television company). Claimed as fair use regardless.
• Portion = Entire screenshot which includes all the main characters.
• Resolution = Low resolution. The image is only as much resolution as necessary to identify the characters mentioned in the article not enough to be used for piracy, neither does its inclusion limit the copyright owners rights to sell the television show in any way.
• Purpose = Infobox, in article Rising Damp, to illustrate the appearance of this 1970's classic television comedy sitcom and identify it visually for historical and critical analysis, thus it is needed to increase the readers understanding of the subject which is being discussed.
• Replaceability = No free equivalent is available.
• other information = This image is already widely distributed to identify the show as part of DVD catalogs and television reviews, so degrade no market value by providing it here.
