Since I was thinking about scraping iPlayer yesterday, I spent an hour
or two this evening and hacked together this Python script which pulls
programme info from the iPlayer TV category index pages and (for now)

If you're aiming to get something like PVR functionality, i.e.
downloading all episodes of a specific programme, what's working for
me is:
