It might just be that you need to specify a 'mode' for this command. get_iplayer should apply a mode by default but sometimes things go awry.

Retry your command but include the
Code:
--tvmode=best
command at the end.

If you read through the TV Download guide, you'll see that it says to include this command:

Another possible cause: You are outside the UK and either you are not using a proxy or your proxy is broken.
