Can I watch a complete game of a match with the camera fixed on the chessboard? Match of the past.

I watch chess documentaries. But being a beginner and not having played in competition I wonder things that I do not know.

To give some examples that come to my mind:

+In a WC match, I would like to see both players always, know how many times they get up from the chair, if they can see on screen what happens live in other fights (candidate tournament in this case), talk to someone ...

+In the match of the century, I wonder how many people there were on Boris Spassky's team. These are things that I do not know where I got them from and may not be real: Were there more than 30 Soviet analysts helping him? Is it true that Fischer was going to play bowling (during the game?).

+Can a player, in a high-level tournament (during the game), consult with an analyst?

+To go to the bathroom alone and with vigilance?

+In a WC or candidates, what is allowed and what is not allowed (during the game), I mean when they get up and walk

These uncertainties I do not clarify nor watching documentaries.

Thank you very much to the people who want to help me.
Yeah. I read something about a "bathroomgate", but I haven´t details, and I must read when and were it supposes happened.
