No, the package is get-iplayer.  For convenience it provides an alias
so you can call it using get-iplayer or get_iplayer.

I gather you have now removed the package.  If you don't get any response from
which get-iplayer
or
which get_iplayer
and trying to run either results in command not found then you can
safely install the later version.
