However, our fellow fans in the UK do make things available by less, er, legal means. I would *never* encourage such piracy, but some folks do post the episodes on YouTube.com where it can be watched in 10 minute chunks if you really need it now. But there is also something called BitTorrents where users share multimedia material, at places like mininova.org. That does require downloading software, called a client, to your computer in order to then download the posted files. <br/><br/>But I wouldn't know anything about that...

I live on the west coast of Canada and I only get it on CBC. They have an aggreement with BBC to stay a season (series) behind. From what I read on Phil's site you guys must have another source. What is an HTML tag? Obviously I'm an old fart. Still able to look up though, just mow I prefer a recliner. Hi Nicole,
