iplayer - downloading expired programmes ?

[ereiamjh]

Is there any way to download shows from the BBC iPlayer after they've been removed from the website?

I'm assuming that the BBC remove them from their servers so it's not possible.

I've only just realised that Himalaya with Michael Palin was available. The final 3 episodes are still available and I downloaded them, but I'm really disappointed to have missed the first 3. I know they're available from other sources but iPlayer streams are usually very good quality.

There isn't.
