Many thanks to Kevin and MacFH,
The fact that podcast is deprecated makes sense and I can avoid in future if necessary.

I haven't yet looked for or found a podcast but I recall they are used on the iPlayer website.  I shall examine further when I have time but it is not an issue at present.

I note Kevin's advice and I recall using --pid-recursive in the past.

My history file is a trip down memory lane, as is my .mp4 and .m4a database.  Re-activating my pvr list was fun and amazingly some programmes missing from my library turned up and helped me fill the gaps.

Good to be in touch once more and thanks for the help.
Regards,
Alastair
