Hello Being Human Series 1 Episode 3 b00hkc4x is of version 'other'. This 'other' version downloads and tags correctly. the issue with it is that iTunes will not load it into the iTunes Library. The Quick Look feature of Mac OSX will not play the episode. VLC, does play the "other" version.
Using handbrake on Mac OSX; the 'other' version was "processed" to a handbrake copy. This handbrake copy will load into the iTunes Library and the Quick Look feature does play the episode. The handbrake copy is roughly half the size in bytes. The 'other' version is close to the size of the other Being_Human Series 1 episodes.
