Rubbish - She is a party to the conversation and is the one who is  
consenting to the recording.  You only need one party to consent.  You are  
confused about the definition of what constitutes a consensual recording -  
it doesn't need every party to consent - only one......

What specific UK law prohibits an individual from recording their  
conversations with others covertly?  If there were such a law - every  
television show which utilizes the hidden camera technique would be subject  
to prosecution.  The fact is that if the person doing the recording is a  
party to the conversation - it's legal.
