Downloading a Television programme will be illegal in most cases, especially if they are from a different country, as even the broadcaster will usually only have the rights to show it within a particular region. Some regions are showing season seven at the moment.
Torrent or bittorrent is a protocol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_%28protocol%29
BitTorrent does not offer its users anonymity. It is possible to obtain the IP addresses of all current and possibly previous participants in a swarm from the tracker. This may expose users with insecure systems to attacks.[15] It may also expose users to the risk of being sued, if they are distributing files without permission from the copyright holder(s).0 -
