Subject: Better way to save.

You DO NOT have to download Ubuntu (or any other Linux distro) to save these videos.

1)Download Opera Web Browser. (free)
2)Load this video page, let the video load completley.
3)From Opera's Menu go to "Tools, Advanced, Cache"
4)Search for ".flv" you will see the video listed, including the archive.org address. Right click and save the file.
5)You can play them back with VideoLAN player. (free)

No need to spend hours downloading ISO files for Linux, fiddling with your Internet settings. You can always save files directly from Opera.

Subject: Actually, you CAN download the Flash movie.

@koolgiy: You can download the Flash movie. It's not hi-def, but it's good enough quality, IMHO. Here's how you do it:

1. Boot into Ubuntu/Linux. If you haven't got Ubuntu, download version 8.04 or later from www.ubuntu.com and install it. You can even install it on your Windows PC without interfering with your Windows installation: It comes with an installer for Windows that can make Ubuntu use a normal file as its hard drive and still make your PC dual-boot into Ubuntu (no virtual machine/emulator).

2. Make sure you've got Flash installed in Ubuntu. You may need to go to Applications -- Add/Remove... and install Flash from there (search for flash and install).

3. Then visit this page and click play on the video and then click pause after it's started playing. Wait till the progress bar has gone all the way to the right, ie. the video has fully loaded.

4. Go to /tmp and look for a file named Flash123xzy or similar. Copy that file to your desktop. It's a .flv file; you can rename it to e.g. bbc.flv. You can watch the file with e.g. Videolan's VLC (from videolan.org/vlc ).

Too bad you dont have this to download in a hi-quality version. I could use one for a school project.
