I imagine the BBC don't like people downloading their clips but there

Snag it. Makes movies of what is happerning in the window. So you just film

If you can get your hands on a copy of 'Net Transport' which used to be free 
it shouldn't be a problem.

BBC support real player and windows media streams. In either case real
player 11 http://uk.real.com/player/more should offer you the
"download this clip" button when you hover over the video.

It's recorded in a prorpietary 'ivr' format, but as long as you only
want to watch it in real player rather than edit it, that should work
fine.

Purely for test purposes, I downloaded that clip using Real Alternative and 
Net Transport, the resulting video wound up in a file called 
<132600_16x9_bb.wmv> which plays back perfectly.

Yeah, videolan or asfrecorder would work as well, but I didn't want to
confuse the user with complicated steps like combining 2 software
packages with lots of setup options to do the job of one ;-)
