Looks like these pages expect support for several: 

  coverage:   pulsar:  nitro:   

eg (as you said):

"coverage://coverage?id=/news/live/uk-politics-29825165&template=sport.coverage&isuk=1&template=sport.coverage&isuk=1",

"nitro://programme?mediaType=video&type=Episode&pid=b04mvj6v&end_from=2014-10-30&start_to=2014-10-30",

Since these are non-standard presumably these only work when some BBC
site-specific extension has been loaded into a browser and configured so
they get control for each such URI?
