Release year in programme information?

[David]

Hi all,

Just wondering if there is anyway to get a programmes release year? 
--info has the first broadcast year but this is not what I am looking 
for. It would be nice to have the actual release year particularly on 
certain types of programmes, like movies. The data is there somewhere as 
its available on the iPlayer website. Is there ayway to get this via 
get_iplayer currently or perhaps would it be possible to pick this up as 
a future enhancement?

TIA.

David
