Hi Chris!
Have you read my previous post here:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2013-June/004383.html

The PID alone (the 8-digit alphanumeric string) can't tell much by itself (as you say, it is only when you compare it to another PID that you can - maybe - deduce which one belongs to a more recent broadcast), but the URL:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/PID/broadcasts

does reveal precisely when the first broadcast took place...

@dinkypumpkin:

Any news whether the above URL could be somehow utilised by get_iplayer?

Many thanks in advance :-)
Vangelis.
