Thank for that. It appears to b e a link to the web version, which i have already. I am still experiencing the same problem. I am sure its an issue with the unit itself. I have the recommended custom rom (dowloaded from this site) with google play. All other flash site work apart from bbc iplayer. Hope i can find a solution....

I don't know if it will help, but there is an update planned these next days for the Android BBC iPlayer.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinternet/2012/09/media_player_android_phones_ta.html

Short quote:

Today the BBC's mobile technical teams have begun rolling out a new way of securely playing video and audio content on Android phones and tablets. It's called BBC Media Player and we are starting to use it with the mobile view of the BBC's iPlayer website. Next week we plan to release a new version of BBC iPlayer on Android which will use this player. Other applications and websites will follow.

.....

Cheers.
