Surely you don't actually believe that?

There is a very limited provision that says you can record a broadcast or cable transmission exclusively for the purpose of viewing/listening at a more convenient time.

Copying the program for, say, sharing, is clearly not included in this. By downloading or possessing a copy through BT you'll be in breach of S.16, S.17, S.23 Copyright Designs & Patents Act.
