BBC iPlayer content can now be downloaded to iPhone and iPad

Users are finally able to watch Doctor Who, EastEnders and Cash in the Attic without an internet connection.
The BBC has confirmed that mobile users will now be able download TV shows via the iPlayer app for the first time.
From today (Tuesday), licence-fee payers can download BBC programmes from the iPlayer watch them offline on iPhones andiPads, including while abroad.
The function will launch on Android devices in the near future.
Daniel Danker, the BBC's general manager of on-demand programmes, said: "This fundamentally changes one of the most annoying restrictions about viewing programmes. It means audiences are liberated from the constraints [of online-only viewing] and it fundamentally changes what it means to go on holiday."
He continued: "With mobile downloads, you can now load up your mobile phone or tablet with hours and hours of BBC programmes, then watch them on the road, on the tube, on a plane, without worrying about having an internet connection or running up a mobile data bill."
