Hi,

I recently noticed S05E01 of ‘Last Tango in Halifax’ had been added to
the available programs.  It's also returned by a search.

    $ ./get_iplayer --nopurge -e 31536000 --future tango
    get_iplayer v3.22, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

    Matches:
    5621:   Last Tango in Halifax: Series 5 - Episode 1, BBC One, m000fs1z
    INFO: 1 matching programmes
    $

Note the old version, v3.22.  Perhaps that's related to my problem.

Poking about the iPlayer web site, I see many of the previous episodes
are available, e.g. S01E01 at https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01p1q71
says ‘Watch now’.  Why isn't it found by the search above?

‘./get_iplayer --no-purge --future -e 31536000 -i --pid b01p1q71’
finds it and also suggests it's available for a while.

    expires:         in 348 days 22 hours (2021-01-30T12:00:00+00:00)

When I refresh, I do it twice, the first time with ‘--refresh
--refresh-limit-tv=30’ and the second with ‘--refresh --refresh-future’.

I'm happy to update my get_iplayer and re-apply/re-edit my patches, but
would like to hear that the search returns copious episodes for another
first before bothering.  And if it doesn't, does anyone here know why
not?

Cheers, Ralph.
