45 - minutes spent attempting (without success) to install iPlayer desktop
04 - minutes watching via iPlayer online before the browser hung
00 - number of repeats of this episode on non-HD BBC this week, at least according to BBC site
14 - minutes to download ev0l illegal torrent (seeded by over 10,000 users)

Haven't watched it yet - but is iPlayer subject to overload? It may also be subject to payment soon according to reports on the radio this morning.
My neighbours have dispensed with TV entirely and just use iPlayer and its equivalents.

can't watch it - BBC iPlayer thinks I'm outside the UK.

Thanks, I think iPlayer was having a braino at the time. I've downloaded the standalone player and the programme now.
