The BBC is creating digital archives of Desert Island Discs from the
very beginning. There's currently a lot available and they're adding more.
The website is
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/features/desert-island-discs/find-a-castaway
You can download directly from the webpage to mp3 but the quality is
poor (as usual with BBC podcasts). They're available in 128kbit AAC
using get_iplayer as follows. They're not in any get_iplayer listings so
you have to do this manually.
Get the PID from a recording you're interested in. The PID is the last
characters at the end of the URL after the hash (#). An example is
p009mdbb for the Dirk Bogarde recording.
Then use get_iplayer as follows to download:
get_iplayer --pid p009mdbb --modes=flashaacstd

Roger
