Brian,

The experimental Web API predates these services so they were not supported 
when it was launched. Although the API is still maintained we're not  planning 
to develop it further because better data sources are becoming available within 
the BBC and we're considering a complete rebuild.

Any further suggestions you have about improving the API during this process 
would be appreciated.

Chris
