Must admit, I've been caught by this myself on many occasions - the number "1" and the letter "l" look pretty similar on BBC pages, which is why I've given up typing in the PID and do a cut and paste instead.

Oh, foo. those are the letter "l". it wasn't until I saw them in a different font that I saw that.

I tried to use these two PID's to download programs, and they fail, as below: b04pc6l0 and b04p87l8 (these are cut and pasted from the BBC).

I'm suspicious of the penultimate characters in those PID's. It looks like the "pipe"character, but that doesn't work either.
Suggestions?
