Series stacking comes to iPlayer

The BBC’s iPlayer service is to allow viewers to catch up on every episode of some of their favourite series with the introduction of a new “series stacking” feature set to go live from 13 September 2008.

In a major change to the service viewers will be able to enjoy any episode, after it has first been broadcast, for the duration of the entire series. At present episodes are only available for seven days after transmission.
