If you see "All streaming threads completed" you're trying to download 
the wma version of the programme.  I rather doubt you meant to do that.

Try again and obey the first rule of Get_iPlayer Club:

*Run with --verbose and show us the output*

If it breaks again, try --modes=flashaacstd, and obey the second rule of 
Get_iPlayer Club:

*Run with --verbose and show us the output*

Otherwise, we're just guessing here.

get_iplayer also could be falling through to wma mode because it can't 
find rtmpdump on your system, though that seems unlikely if you've been 
able to download other programmes.

Check any mode settings to make sure you haven't inadvertently bumped 
wma to your preferred mode.  Again unlikely, but quick to check.
