Thanks for coding help but, the problem is worse (for me...),

So not even 8 characters. Other World Service Series (?) have similar PIDs
now, e.g. Weekend, World Update.
And I thought I was the only one who listened to WS!

No you're not alone, I've been listening to the World Service (and, a
long time ago, the European Service) for a while and thanks for pointing
out this issue, I hadn't noticed it. I tend to do my file checking on a
Monday for the preceding week.
I could follow the logic of Vangelis' amended coding but I'm afraid I
don't understand Ralph's. To be honest I'm not that bothered about
coding that eliminates invalid PID combinations, I'm more interested in
using something that picks them all up. Would I be right in saying that
amending Vangelis' suggestion to:
[bpw][a-z0-9]{14}
would pick up 15 character PIDs as well as anything shorter?

PS maybe in the light of Richard's post just now, we need not worry!
