Nudge, nudge...

http://po-ru.com/projects/iplayer-downloader/

Just paste Nick's original link into the downloader and get a
shiny .mov file (327MB)...

...wink, wink.

FWIW, the last bit of footage (LP playing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"
at the Iridium) is just sublime.  So many people simply enthralled.
It was at that point that I realised how dusty my house was, as I kept
getting it in my eyes and throat...

My wife recorded it for me (I was out), but I already have it on a DVD 
[twice!], with loads of extras. The DVD has the same title as the programme: 
"Chasing Sound".

I saw half of it with major interruptions from the family who for once
were all home and in the room together... hope to catch a repeat at a
quieter time. I have to admit to being unaware of his massive
contributions to recording techniques. Amazing.
