 It looks as if ALL downloads via PID or URL (be it TV or Radio) 
end up with a filename in the following pattern:

BBC_iPlayer_Feeds_-_-_PID_default

IMHO, this should be one of the priority patches...
In the meantime, I use --file-prefix (with a manually typed string)
to rename accordingly beforehand. I fear most of 
the Substitution Parameters to be used with --file-prefix 
(http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/documentation#Substitution%20Parameters)
won't be working, either...
And as far as the OP is concerned, I don't think 
--file-prefix is available in the WPM 

Sad day today, indeed...
