BBC iPlayer lets you watch online or download TV that has been aired within the last week. It also has a small section of classic TV from the months or years gone by. I used to catch up with my Top gear on there :D
Sadly for me the classic Top gear stuff is no longer on the site but I still occasionally use it!

I have a 20mg broadband line at home so its unfair if I comment on the speed of the downloading and streaming. Well lets just say that I have never had a problem with either and both always start instantly!

BBC iPlayer is a smooth running and easy to use service. Its free which is great and its pretty much the same as you get from a Sky+ box or the virgin equal.

The one thing I dont like about it is sometimes its tricky to find the show you are after. Specially if its an older show from the collection part. In the end I always manage but if that was easier than this would be perfect!
