What do you do if you haven't got enough cash to make your music video? Simple: get "Big Brother" to record it for you.

Unsigned Manchester band, The Get Out Clause, felt the cheapest way to make their music video was to perform in front of a load of CCTV cameras around the city and then under the wonders of the Freedom of Information Act request the footage.

It was then all stitched back together and hey presto, one free music video.

The single Paper will be out soon.
