It is illegal to take photographs or sketches of court proceedings in England under s41 Criminal Justice Act 1925. Journalists write notes and use their memory to draw these sketches for newspapers afterwards. Because the sketches are drawn afterwards they are not illegal. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Geo5/15-16/86/section/41
