No you can't, unfortunately. Not for TV.

There are some programs that don't even make it to iPlayer in the UK.
Isn't copyright wonderful?

Hasn't anyone put it as a torrent somewhere?

Presume its not just copyright, may affect the chance of selling a program
to other countries and broadcasters if its been available on iplayer.

That and the need for a TV licence

Not strictly true.  I don't have a TV (and therefore no license) but
it's perfectly legal for me to watch programs on iPlayer so long as
they're watched after broadcast.  So I watched this film!

It's on thebox.bz as "Indian Hill Railways" Episode 1, and it's a FREE
download (your download badwidth usage isn't counted). Over 1,000 people
have downloaded it.

And when I go there, I find I have to sign up.  When I go to look into
that I get:

Oh well, there's some fairly good clips on youtube.
