I am trying to download Dr Who from BBCA.

I can get single episodes.
I cannot get the whole season.

This is a request for playlist support from the series page.

Attempting to fetch the season:
```
keybounceMBP:BBCA michael$ ./yt-dl -v --get-filename -a dl-list

In comparison, fetching just single episodes - http://www.bbcamerica.com/shows/doctor-who/full-episodes/season-10/episode-02-smile - works fine.
