there is a plugin for google earth that overlays OS maps over the relevant area at either 1:50 or 1:25. It can be done legally (i.e following OS data guidelines) as you are using their API.
Problem is that it will only serve a selected amount of tiles then it is used up for that day. Hence no link to it but google is your friend 
I didn't think the google earth plugin showed 25k. Os openspace (os api) doesn't include 25k
Try getting the relevent map from your local library.
Why do people reply without bothering to read the whole thread?

I have tried that my local library has about 4 maps and will only get a map in if you pay its £1 if another library in the borough has a copy. If they dont have a copy in the borough you can put in a request for a map but its £3 and it can take months before they get it in.POSTED 20 HOURS AGO
aracer - I meant if you try and download the gifs directly via a script (written in autohotkey scripting langauge) without loading the webpage. I tried it quickly and got a load of 'unauthorised use' gifs back.
Ah - I suspect you're not correctly formatting the loc2 field if you're getting that. You do have to vary it for each individual square, and provided you do that it works fine - or at least it does in my VC program (not quite finished yet Mark - will forward it when it is!)
Try clicking on one of my winkys up above (so pleased when I found you could make clickable smileys on here )
