Mr G, they're only the torrent files that you have downloaded - it's not the actual video file. You need a piece of software to download the video using the Bitorrent protocol. The files you've downloaded are merely 'pointers' to where to get the data from.

uTorrent (http://www.utorrent.com/) works well. I wouldn't be running it at work though !

Ahhh I should have picked that up.. I thought you were a torrent guy... Yes of course you have just downloaded the "pointer" to the actual file.... Let me know when you have utorrent or similar running..

I thought it was you downloading the show coz there have been a few australian ip addresses grabbing it.
