This method has worked in the past for
apparently similar collections -
but note the use of 'group' in the url
which I do not recall from previous examples.
Hi Mike... I don't think "group PIDs" were ever
supported in GiP, only "brand" and "series" ones...
so it might have been a brand/series page that has
worked for you in the past...
... Well, it turns out that you were right and,
still, I am right, too!
Just came across the following "group" listing:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/group/b096k7q7
Unlike your previous example (group being
an assortment of different programmes), this
"group PID" does work with --pid-recursive
because it's actually a series PID (you can tell
because all members of the group are
individual episodes of the same series):
get_iplayer --type=tv --pid=b096k7q7 --pid-recursive -i =>
INFO: Series or Brand PID detected
INFO: BBC Four - The Vietnam War - Available now

INFO: Series 1, Riding the Tiger (1961-1963) (b096k948)

I hope this makes it clearer now...
Cheers,
Vangelis.
