Well from Dominics suggestion, I clicked on file (although I get the
realplayer window on the bbc site realplayers still opens an external
player), open location and that gave me the link to the realplayer stream
(don't know why I never thought of that to start with). Problem is when I use
it with Jonathans command I get a couple of errors:

A /tmp/bbc2.ra file was produced but it was only 3 minutes long (as opposed to
the hour+ long it should be and there was no sound from it.
Any thoughts?
