Radio category selector broken?

Hi,

I've noticed that the category selector appears not to be working for 
the radio feeds. It works well for TV, so I can do this:
get-iplayer --type tv --category scifi

but not this:
get-iplayer --type radio --category drama

There are programmes out there at the moment with this category:
get-iplayer --info jules | grep cat
categories:     Drama,SciFi & Fantasy
category:       Drama

This apples to 2.91 with Simple::XML and 2.90; it used to work a couple 
of months ago, so I assume it's something that's died as a consequence 
of the switch off of the old feeds. I've not yet had time to dig in to 
the code for this, so I can't offer any pointers there.

Thank you, as ever, for superb work on get-iplayer
Chris
