Hello
I'm located outside the UK and would like to download the following program:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b07pmyd6/inside-the-factory-series-2-4-bicycles
Using the Chrome extension "BBC iPlayer Proxy", I can watch it in the browser, but after installing the separate BBC iPlayer Downloads application required when hitting the Download link in the page, it fails downloading the show. I attached a screenshot.
But then, since the application runs outside the browser, I wasn't surprised since it probably hits the server directly, using my local, non-UK IP address.
Short of taking a subscription for a VPN in the UK, does someone know of a workaround to download a BBC Two show from abroad?
Thank you.

Edit: The Perl-based get_iplayer mentioned in this thread didn't work either:
--Code:c:\Program Files\get_iplayer>get_iplayer --mode=flashstd --url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b07pmyd6/inside-the-factory-series-2-4-bicycles get_iplayer v2.95, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details use --warranty.

Edit: The Flash Video Downloader extension for Chrome did the trick:
