It's been ages since I used get_iplayer, but it always used to make
that check.

However there's a parameter that can be used to force a redownload
(which people might deliberately use if they really do want to grab
a file again).

I'm wondering if you have some default parameters stored and happen
to have stored that specific [ --force ] parameter?
