It is automatic usually.  If I recall correctly get_iplayer updates
the cache when it's four hours old - it's possible that the programmes
you were looking for were added to iPlayer after you last updated the
cache, but the cache was still less than four hours old.  Otherwise
I'd pencil this one up to one of those glitches that doesn't make much
sense but is easy to resolve (if you know how ;-).

nothing unusual there.
