Dearest Beexers (Beexerz?),

A chum of mine is both a technophobe and a member of the Welsh Highland Railway. A four-part series started on BBC2 Wales recently about said Welsh choo-choos. Could someone help me out and capture the programme(s) from iPlayer over the next few weeks and upload them somewhere? I can then burn them on a DVD for him (and for me).

Part 1 is here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01499dt

I'd do it myself but I don't have Internets at home (only the one, on my mobile), but I can download biggish files okay from a library or similar.

I'd be forever in your debt (not like that, Zardoz). :)

Aye. If you remind me when each ep is available.

Sure it wouldn't be easier to just torrent them?

Probably, but I don't have desktop Internets at home.

I can download the first part as a torrent. Wing me a message when each part airs and I'll look for the rest. :)

Cool. :)

Could you upload the video file somewhere (Megaupload, etc)?

Here. Though I get an error when clicking the link. Maybe it just takes time to appear on their servers. If it's not online by tomorrow, I'll upload it somewhere else.

Thanks. I'll give it a go on Monday. :)

You can upload them to the forum if they're less than a gig. Some people have trouble maintaining a connection* though.
