Someone might have other suggestions but assuming you have done the
usual, that is repaired disk permissions, , done the Pram reset and so
on the I personally would be looking to re-install the OS if Voiceover
was behaving so strangely despite multiple reboots.
Nowadays I set this up overnight and wake up in the morning to a
re-installed OS so it seems pretty straightforward to me and is usually
less effort than trying to disentangle problems. A reinstall should
return you to the same settings, apps and documents but with a better
working Mac OS, including Voiceover. If a re-install does not work you
may have to look at a clean install. Make sure you have a Time Machine
backup before doing anything.
Let us know if you need help with the reinstall process.
By the way the BBC url is

settings in VO Utility?

Dear David and All, I have listened and followed to the letter,
David's VO Utility Settings. I have double-checked by listening
again to the first podcast and made the changes in Navagation,
Commanders and Web. Quick Nav is turned on. I go to Safari and
thought I could not replicate the BBC News page as I could not hear
exactly what David was typing (David you might just send me off list
the ERL so I can follow exactly) I nevertheless went to the BBC Home
Page but when I press H for Heading, nothing happens. If however, I
press Ctrl, Option and Command and H I can then move to a heading.
Just to say again I did a check that quick nav was turned on by
pressing the left and right arrow keys. This did at first turn it
off and then I repeated the action to turn it on. Now where am I
going wrong? Thanks in advance. If it helps I am using a Mac Book
Air with Yosemity installed.
