Thanks for noticing, have passed your comments on. It seems that they’re not all live yet, but more are on the way. There is a different schedule for regional news, i.e. they only seem to get 24 hours to live and aren’t published daily. Anyone know any more than that? Gavin On 11/09/2010 18:38,

Yes, just noticed that 'Points West' hasn't made it into iPlayer yet. I believe that even the national news @1/6/10 lives only 24hrs. The ones I did look at: Look North, South Today, BBC London News and North West Tonight seem all to be coming out daily on weekdays since 6th/7th Sept (except BBC

Well it would seem that my local news, 'South Today', has started being available in iPlayer since 7th September :-) Thanks to whoever made that happen! BTW: Seems that other weekday regional news programmes have also started appearing. Best Regards Phil On Wed, 2010-09-01 at 15:17 +0100,

That's pretty standard for news packages - the studio output will then be mono'ed before it hits the transmission chain. And you're quite right, it's for archiving purposes. It seems a bit lowest common denominator, doesn't it - surely in this day and age it would be preferable to encode at

Hi Jim, I believe you can often find the local news for up to one day after on the local BBC site for that region. Last time I checked (incidentally for exactly the same reason as you) it was some awful wmv or real stream in very low or extremely low quality. Local news doesn't appear on iPlayer
