bpa, thanks for the reply.  

Both the MP3 URL, and the HLS URL, play in VLC on the desktop PC.

I'm having difficulty on my SQ Touch.  I use the SBS Web GUI and enter
the URL under Internet Radio, Tune in URL, <http.....>

The MP3 URL plays on the Touch.  The HLS URL stops immediately, and the
Touch displays:

"No playlist found in <something that I think is the URL>" 

I was quite surprised by that output from the Touch, because VLC had
seemed to manage.

Listen again would be really useful.  On checking that URL I see that it
lists all the '50s' programmes available, with the Programme ID (pid). 
On each programme's page, the web page looks to be using a
"http...<pid>#play" sort of construction to allow 'Play'.  I'm using
Firefox (for sure, with HTML5 I think).

Are you suggesting I can edit something in the iPlayer menu files?  Is
there some more detailed guidance somewhere that I could follow for
that, or were you suggesting that, for Listen Again function, the
iPlayer plug-in itself would need editing (by an expert)?
