Actually you only need one with two connections, you can even get away
with just a headphone/single socket if you don't intend on saving
programs to tape.

The three connections normally are,

In 
Out
Rem

'Rem' is used to automatically push 'pause' on the tape recorder - ie,
it will stop the tape from recording when the file has finished.  This
one really isn't needed.

The hard bit, if you don't already have it, will be finding a cable
which will connect the tape recorder to the beeb - if I remember
correctly it is a 5-pin DIN type?
