Hi !

The URL for the 2015 episodes of "T in the Park" is:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b061pqkb/episodes/guide

There's no need for screen-scraping...
If you specify the pid string I referenced previously (b061pqkb)
together with the "--pid-recursive" switch,
GiP will try to fetch all 2015 episodes;
I typed a test command:

perl get_iplayer-294.pl --pid=b061pqkb --pid-recursive --modes=flashvhigh -t

and that found a plethora of results:
