TV Torrents

Don't know if this is dodgy ground, but I'm wondering if anyone's got any good Bittorrent sites for TV programmes. I've managed to miss last week's Dr Who and 24, so I want to catch them!

I've previously used tvtorrents.tv, but it seems to have shut down.

Mods please bear in mind that it's legal to download TV programmes once they've been broadcast in this country -- I'm not asking for films or music or warez...

Exactly what i was going to recommend

I search on torrentspy.com, mybittorrent.com and isohunt.com. I'd have a look whats indexed on snarf-it and pirate bay too.

You can get the doctor who eps fast off alt.binaries.drwho on the ntl news server.

Didn't realise that.

Anyway, www.btefnet.net will have Dr Who and 24. Another good one is www.uknova.com.

why is this different from taping an episode, for personal use??

Perhaps you could provide evidence of this, because I find that hard to believe.

I don't think "gain" comes into it, but I await the evidence.
