I can't give a detailed analysis because it's just before finals, but the general approach to UK (and UK derived, Tyco is a Hong Kong case after all) Copyright Law is that it requires originality, yes, but there is more emphasis on protecting publishers' rights than the author's and as regards to originality, it tends to follow the strict / merger approach rather than the sweat of the brow approach.
