Can You Download Channel 4 TV Programmes To Your PC To Watch Later? - I'm not sure about Downloading but I have a shortcut on my desktop to click on to 4OD (=Channel 4 On Demand) and you can then select and watch previous programmes - I think in a similar way to BBC iPlayer.

I think the OP is looking for a utility similar to get_iplayer which works with 4OD. I'd be interested too, but I'm not aware of anything.There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.

I'm with Plusnet broadband and between 12AM till 8AM i have free download time..........without using my limit.
Streaming TV programmes eats up my 10GB, so i prefer to download things and watch later.The Daleks Reign Supreme, All Hail The Daleks!0 -

If you use firefox i know there is a plugin you can use in the browser that downloads any movie or youtube videos and works with 4od i managed to download one espisode of shameless to my laptop.
cant remember the name let me do a check and place a link in my reply
thanks"MSE Money saving challenges..8/12/13 3,500 saved so far :j" p.s if i been helpfully please leave me a thank you but seek official advice at all times from a pro0 -
Cheers for that.
I see they have a free trial.
I only wanted to catch up on the episodes of Four In A Room - without streaming them on 4od and thus using up my GB limit.
This might work for my needs with the free trial.The Daleks Reign Supreme, All Hail The Daleks!0
