Use --command and substitution parameters to tag the file the way you 
want with atomicparsley.

A Unix-ish command-line analogue for your example would be;

get_iplayer --type radio --isodate --command "atomicparsley '<filename>' 
--artist '<channel>' --album '<name>' --genre '<type>' --title 
'<firstbcast>' --overWrite" --get 'Leading Edge'

For MP3 files you would use id3v2 or equivalent instead of 
atomicparsley.  And of course, those params could go in your options 
file for pvr use.

Substitution parameters described here:

If you want to prevent any tags other than your own being written, the 
options are:

M4A/MP4 files:

1) Get the latest Git HEAD version of get_iplayer and use --no-tag

2) Add --atomicparsley=bogus to the command line.  get_iplayer will 
output a warning that it can't find atomicparsley and skip tagging.

MP3 files:

1) Get the latest Git HEAD version of get_iplayer and use --no-tag

2) Uninstall the MP3::Tag Perl module if you have it installed.  Then 
add --id3v2=bogus to the command line.  get_iplayer will output a 
warning that it can't find id3v2 and skip tagging.
