Quick question.....

Is it possible to copy from a Sky Plus box, via the serial connection, to a PC?

If so, how?

In a word: no.

You can put a bigger hard drive into it though, think I saw a few threads on it at avforums.

It encrypts everything it records, bit pants really, I think there are ways of doing it but its a lengthy process and would involve taking things appart. Best bet is to buy a TV card for your PC and just record things direct..
