The errors are repeatable, so it seems unlikely that they are being caused 
by server loading  or by downloading too fast.  If you look at dinky's 
pre-Olympics list

you will see that some of them have been fixed.

Anyway get_iplayer's HLS download can be slowed in Windows 10 Home (but not 
Pro) by sending the --output to a FAT32 drive.  The larger the drive the 
greater the slowing.  I downloaded Versailles episode 9 (b07n7dbg) in HLSHD 
at 65Mbit/s, 2.5Mbit/s and 16.6Mbit/s.  All three attempts found a Segment 
not found error at segment 52.
