At least they have acknowledged a fault but the date does not match so
not sure if this is the same fault.  There is nothing in blog to
indicate any change in feed operation or functionality so it looks like
a problem with the feed.  As I said before, I believe the implementation
of this feed was outsourced when it was implemented maybe 5-6 years ago.
Lets hope there is a maintenance contract but it is unlikely original
developers are around, so some poor person is having to go into old code
and figure what has happened (i.e. what was broken by BBC over the
weekend - BBC likes doing new code at weekends)  and then fix it.  A
couple of days at least.
