There might be a better way of doing this but what you can do is look at the 
source code for that page and find the playlist url for the video. In this case 
it's http://static.bbci.co.uk/lamappa/0.1.11/playlists/p00f6q5l.xml.

Using that with --url in the command line downloaded it for me

get_iplayer --modes=best 
--url="http://static.bbci.co.uk/lamappa/0.1.11/playlists/p00f6q5l.xml";
