By the sound of it it comes down as an update.
Try this.
In your Steam client right-click the Broken Sword entry and select Properties.
Select the Updates tab.
In the 'Automatic Updates' dropdown select 'High Priority - Always auto update 
this
game ASAP'.
Close the Steam client then launch it again. It *should* start downloading the
full version of the game. Good luck :-)

and if you need a savegame:

"Please click 
http://revolution.co.uk/downloads/savegames/Scene_23_Hobbs_Yard_Back_Room_Savegame.zip%20 
and unzip the two files you need. These will need to be put in the following 
location on your computer in order to load the save:
•On Windows, the save games will be found in your "Documents" folder in the 
"Broken Sword 5" directory.
•On Linux, they are under .bs5 in your home folder.
•On Mac, they will be under your user profile, via Library>Application 
Support>Broken Sword 5. Please note that you may need to make hidden files 
visible in order to view these in Finder.

Please load the file up under 'Profile 1' "

The day after I posted the above message, and before I saw your above post, 
part 2 of the game was downloaded to my computer when I was in the middle of 
doing something -nothing to do with Steam. A window suddenly appeared on the 
screen saying "downloading Broken sword 5" or something. I was quite 
amazed -I've never had that happen. You were right Mick, it was an update or 
episode 2 and not the whole game as I thought might happen, so it took the 
same 3 hours to download as part 1, which was good and not the entire game. 
I didn't think that would happen. You can see I am not familiar with 
downloading games from Steam. this is first time. Gog is much easier for me 
to figure out.

I've been playing adventure games for 24 years, where you buy the box with 
the CD/DVD inside and put in your CD/DVD rom. Much easier than downloading 
and in my experience Steam is hard to figure out and the screen is very 
dark. I had to turn the brightness way up more than usual. Gog is much 
easier, but in case I need to get a game at Steam sometime, I wanted to see 
how it works. After it was downloaded, I also followed your instructions to 
see how to download an update from Steam. There are so many choices 
everywhere on Steam.

I wasnt sure with some of the terms used on Steam either such as "In your 
Steam Client right click" you mentioned. I figured it probably means your 
Steam account?  Everything is easy when you know how :)

Thank you for your instructions and help. I am still working on Part 1. The 
game is quite interesting. Puzzles are not that hard a lot is problem 
solving and following the story.Very nice graphics.I like George and 
Nico-others were good too.

rms - Thanks for the information above. I didn't need a saved game. Steam 
downloaded Part 2 of the game to my computer without me doing anything and 
it automatically put part 2 in "My Documents". I've never had any games 
downloaded to me without initiating it myself so was surprising to me. I am 
playing Part 1 of the game and looked for saved games on my computer but 
couldn't find them as I don't look in My Documents very often. You can tell 
I am not very familiar with downloading games, and first time from Steam. 
Gog is easier for me, but  it is good to have knowledge of how Steam works, 
in case I need to order sometime.

Good point. I have always made hidden files visible.

> Please load the file up under 'Profile 1' "

I don't know what is meant by "load the file up under "Profile 1". What 
file? and where is "Profile 1"?  Is it on Steam somewhere? or on my computer 
? Thanks.
