Thanks for this Alistair.
I still can't get it with NVDA or JAWS (demo) but I'm hassling the BBC over
it.

That's because the download button for the program is a Flash video. I mean,
really. I despair sometimes.
 
You'll have to tab in WebbIE web view or Firefox until you hear "Install BBC
iPlayer Desktop", then hit return, then tab around inside the Flash video
until you hear Yes, then return, which will try to install Adobe Air and
then the application. There will probably be a popup window called
"Application Install" and an Install button to tab and return to at some
point too.
 
Here's a link to Adobe Air, which is a prerequisite, and might be easier to
install first:

Good luck.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/install#blq-content
With firefox or Webbie and NVDA I can not find a download button or link.
 
Very many thanks,
