Just go to the page of the show you want, select the desired series and you will get a row of the available episodes with a screenshot and a brief description below. < & > just above the right-most episode on the screen navigates to other episodes.
Right click on the screenshot for the ep you want & copy the link. For Dr Who 5.1, that's:
https://iview.abc.net.au/video/ZX0929A001S00
Then toss that at pcspeak's downloader script, youtube-dl or whatever other method you prefer. I just tried the above url and it worked.
One-off specials & movies are more difficult. The instructions I gave in this forum back in December still mostly work apart from the first step in getting the program ID. Now you need to right click on the background and select "view page source", "view page info" (for firefox) or whatever options your browser gives. Hunt through the resulting tab and look for the url of the background image, snip out the ID which is part of the background image filename and follow the rest of the instructions I posted back in Dec last year a few posts above.
