A persistent BBC problem before christmas was "long response time" 
packets.  From my monitomring of R4 - averaging about once an hour but
worse around 10.00am and between 5.00pm and 7.00pm http GETs took longer
than 2 secs to get reponse from BBC and less frequently there were
reponse time between 20 secs and 2 mins. A little monitoring of R3 had
similar long respponse time packets but peaked at different times.  Most
users have DASH timeout set up to 3 secs so breaks would occur
(typically "cannot resolve ip ".  Three possibilities come to mind but
more are possible.
1. Nothing has changed - lnetwork oad has lightened over Christmas and
is not yet back to "normal" - probably not until schools are back.
2. BBC had planned more capacity for 2016 and it has started to come
online 
3. Web attack has resulted in more capacity and resilience.

I'll try to do some monitoring over next few days to see if anything has
changed.
