Yes - a lot of programmes are available for something like a year or 999 years 
whatever.

These will not be listed in a get_iplayer search.

However they do exist on the iPlayer server. You have to find the relevant page 
on iPlayer and then use that URL in the Quick URL field and then clicking on 
Record. 

For example:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03495yn/lets-imagine-a-branch-line-railway-with-john-betjeman

First transmitted in 1963, John Betjeman looks at the Evercreech Junction to 
Burnham-on-Sea railway line in Somerset.

Betjeman provides a unique profile of a working steam branch line railway as he 
travels along the original part of the Somerset Central Railway. Examining 
towns and stations along the way, Betjeman laments the tragic decline of steam 
railways. The journey culminates with a stroll around Highbridge Wharf, 
sentimentally narrated with a poem that sums up Betjeman's despair; 'Highbridge 
Wharf, your hopes have died...'.

First broadcast on 29 March 1963.

 Subject: Some iplayer programmes not showing

 Hi
 
 I have noticed that some iplayer programmes cannot be
 located using get iplayer.
 
 The programmes affected are shown in the iplayer section of
 the BBC website along with all the other programmes but they
 were added by the BBC some time ago and are not removed from
 the iplayer service after the normal time period.  As
 such, perhaps they are indexed in a different way or
 location which is why they don't show up in get iplayer?
 
 For example:
 
 http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b007796l/modern-times-streetwise
 
 Try finding this with get iplayer.
 
 If there is a way to fix this that would be fantastic as the
 BBC have quite a few of these excellent old programmes.
 
 Many thanks for all that the community does.  Get
 iplayer is fantastic.
 
 Bob
