Hello;

the entry for Natural World 2009-2010 Episode 13 Saving Luna is
list in the tv.cache and get_iplayer --info --type=tv --pid=b00q2s16 returns

Which appears to state that it should be available.
I am trying to understand why this happens time to time.
Interesting. I get --

INFO: No versions of this programme were selected (available versions: none)

Indeed, https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00q2s16 has it as,

Sorry, this episode is not currently available

Maybe the information changed since it got cached?

It's interesting that --info tells me categories though. I miss those
from the normal default programme listing I get from get_iplayer
searches. Perhaps there's an option I should type to still get them.

Quite often, it's a matter of rights issues. I haven't checked the BBC iPlayer page but I wouldn't mind betting that this episode is not available on BBC iPlayer, which is why no versions are available to download. If you care to complete the problems/complaints form, the BBC will respond. That's what I do when something is amiss. EVERY programme has a PID, whether it's made available on BBC iPlayer is another matter.
