If so, which ones? I've googled and apparently we do film some in the Supreme Court, do we televise any criminal cases?

'Consider whether the twin expectation of justice being done and being seen to be done is fully met by televised court proceedings'

I've got to answer that essay question and I was taught that we didn't televise any but that doesn't look like it's true.

Thankyou!

Yeah I did come across that, I'm just a bit confused, I mean where can we watch these court proceedings if they are being televised?

They are filmed for broadcasters to request for news programmes etc, not shown on Court TV like in the states. See also
