   I can't remember if I recorded it when it was last broadcast during the   
   50th anniversary, or even if it was broadcast. I don't even know which   
   hard drive it might be on or if I burned it to DVD. Can the BBC replace   
   my legitimate copy which I paid for with my TV licence by putting it   
   back on iPlayer?
