Apologies - my first email was sent to you in HTML by mistake, causing 
confusion with the first two dashes, but thankfully you saw around it. Copying 
your second command (minus the perl):

get_iplayer  --type radio  --hide  --no-whitespace "Bells On Sunday"  -g

..produced a successful download for me, with underscores instead of spaces 
(v3.17 on lubuntu 16.04.5), so I shall have to bow out here and let someone 
with more diagnostic capability help you.

Thanks, but neither of the following work:

     –no-whitespace

     Apparently treated as a search term ....
         perl  get_iplayer  --type radio  --hide  -no-whitespace "Bells
On Sunday"  -g
     ... downloads the programmes, but there are spaces in the filenamea.


    - –no-whitespace

     Apparently treated as an incorrect command-line parameter ....
         perl  get_iplayer  --type radio  --hide  --no-whitespace "Bells
On Sunday"  -g
     ... produces the Command-Line Help dump.

BTW, for general information, "Bells On Sunday" is a really good, quick
way of testing GetIPlayer, because even at my treacle-slow download
rates up here in the wilds of Scotland, each programme only takes a
minute or so to download, and thus it's a good test of the entire
process from start to finish.
