Type in the command
get_iplayer People Just Do Nothing

Then it’ll show you a list of episodes available to download.

Next to the episode on the list will be an index number. Remember the number.

Then type: get_iplayer - - get “index number without the quotes”.

Easy mate. There are simple instructions on the net. Took me 15 mins to get my head round it first time lol

Another really useful tool is yt-dlp (https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp). Using that link you provided I can use `yt-dlp` and it will download the whole series. I'm geolocked out due to vpn but it works fine in the UK.

Kurupt FM! The rest are irrelevant!
