Hi Nick,

I agree. Loads of the Commonwealth Games programmes have disappeared
from the cache, but as you say, you can see them in the iPlayer site.
If it's all the weightlifting sessions you want you can try using the
command line and master PID like this:

get_iplayer  --pid-recursive --pid p022g2m6

You could specify the --get option also but I found that was not
necessary in this case.

HTH
