Can't find the way to download 1864

user-622

Either with
Code:
--pvr
or direct.
Since the title is completely numeric, it's interpreted as a programme index:

Code:
$ get_iplayer/get_iplayer 1864

I tried with quotes, double quotes, quotes inside double quotes and viceversa (the latter two just give a no match).

Code:
--pid
works, but that's not a solution if I'm trying to use
Code:
--pvr

Using a regexp (e.g. [1]864) works.

Oh my gosh - I wish I saw your post few days ago: now the first two episodes are off the iplayer.. :(
Many thanks for the workaround.
I tried inputting 1864 initially and I just assumed it is not there.
Is there any way to access the first two episodes anywhere now?
Kind of bummed, since I also missed first two episodes of the last series of SPIRAL a while back :(
Cheers!
