Fifth episode turned up on iPlayer as I was listening to the sixth live.
There is something funny going on.
Firefox kept freezing when I was on the B Broadcasting C schedule page 
for R4. I've had a devil of a job with iPlayer trying to find them with 
the PRV. I've had to do direct downloads from the web page. Using the 
Default mode will not find them.

What are you going to do after September?
There was a statement last week that the above named Corporation is 
going to close the loophole that allows people who have not paid the 
licence fee, to listen and watch the site.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35708623

It does not say how.
Interestingly, we don't need a licence to listen to the radio. It is 
funded through the TV licence. So they might not put that restriction on 
the radio sites. They seem to be more interested in stopping the 
bake-offs and Sherlock.
