Thank you Michael. GiP is v3.17 on Windows 10.

See my reply to James - response to using --versions=original on the
recent "Horace" edition (pid=m00014jt) is:
INFO: No versions of this programme were selected (available versions:
podcast)

This has only started happening in the past couple of weeks - I wonder
if for these new ones the original is suppressed even though earlier
programmes might well be available in both formats.

Roger.
