Everyone else has given some sensible advice, but I'll add a few more
suggestions.

1) Buy the series on CD. It's available now from BBC Audio, either as
three separate CDs or the whole trilogy in one pack. Apparently includes a
few scenes that were trimmed from the original broadcast(s) due to timing
reasons. 

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0563529288/

2) MP3ing a RealOne stream is all well and good, but you're going to end
up with a compressed form of a pretty low bandwidth stream. If you're not
too bothered with quality, by all means go for it, but in future you may
want to consider tuning into radio via digital satellite and recording
directly to your favourite digital or analogue format for later
manipulation.
