No joy, unfortunately. If I'm looking at yesterday's page for BBC2, the URL 
is:

www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/schedules/bbctwo/20141026

But if I change the part at the end to "20141017" to try to see the schedule 
for 17th October, I get today's listing instead.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. Much appreciated.
