Can I download BBC programmes to watch offline?

Asked 6 months ago
Yes, you can download BBC programmes to watch offline. BBC iPlayer allows users to download programmes and enjoy them without an internet connection for up to 30 days. Simply select the desired programme from the iPlayer app or website, and click on the download button. Once downloaded, you can access the programme from the "Downloads" section within the app. However, it's important to note that downloaded content will expire after 30 days or if the programme expires from iPlayer. Additionally, some programmes may have restrictions due to rights agreements, preventing them from being downloaded. It is also worth mentioning that not all BBC iPlayer services are available outside of the UK due to licensing constraints.
