Annoyingly, the information available from the URL I use for the 'OnAir'
programme information doesn't directly tell you when the start of the
current programme was. It does give the current programme id though, and
from that extra detailed information can be found (e.g.
www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06qjmfx.json), which includes a
"first_broadcast_date", which might tell when the start of the latest
programme was (unless it was a repeat, maybe?).

Alternatively, the schedules in the e.g.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/availability/radio3.xml file do indicate
the start of the current (as well as past and future) programs with
their programme ids. So the current program information could be
provided for any arbitrary time.
