# Sorry to threadjack but I have an urgent request
I am desperate to see a programme that's on BBC4 at 7pm and have no means of recording it.

Is there any kind person here that can record it for me?
*grovel*

If I can get my paws on it, I will donate dosh to the CST.

*grovels again*

I saw it live and I NEED the recording of it.

It's one of the greatest vocal works I have ever sung and imho, THE greatest vocal work ever produced.

It blows me away.

It's about time I bought a nice/safe proxy wossname so I can watch BBC Programmes.
