I shouldn't think so.  GIA is only built for OSX.  I haven't checked in 
detail, but I'm reasonably sure some of the Cocoa stuff it relies on 
isn't available under iOS.  Plus, since it is a GUI front end for the 
get_iplayer command line script, it requires the usual get_iplayer 
dependencies: Perl, helper apps, etc.  Even if all that was available 
and working, and GIA were somehow ported, you would need to jailbreak 
the iPad to install and run it.
