When trying to download "History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley" the response from the Windows PowerShell terminal is:-
ERROR: Cannot open (write): E:\BBC iPlayer\Royal Historys Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley\Royal_Historys_Biggest_Fibs_with_Lucy_Worsley_Series1-_01._The_Reformation_m000fj9c_editorial.video.ts
During the process of attempting to download the files, all of the 6 files in the recurrence show an error in the title name as follows:-
"Royal History’s Biggest Fibs with LucyWorsley" when is should read "Royal History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley".
It seems to be wrongly translating the apostrophy to ’ which, I think is causing the problem. Downloading the file via BBC iplayer works okay leading me to believe its not a problem on the BBC server.
