How do I use ‘Favourites’ for radio on BBC iPlayer?

Now you can easily group and manage your favourite programmes in one place by using the Favourites module which you can see at the top of the BBC iPlayer screen.

To add a programme, simply hover over it with your mouse and a star icon Star Icon

will appear. When you click the icon it will turn pink so you know it has worked

Once you have added a programme, all new episodes in the series will automatically be added to your Favourites module on the iPlayer site and the Favourites section on your radio console when they become available.

The newest programmes are shown first when you access Favourites and you can also see at a glance which programmes are about to expire.

Even if you have a lot of programmes saved to favourites you can see them easily in the list view, and it’s easy to delete programmes through the manage button on the iPlayer site. However, you can’t just delete one episode in a series – it will delete all episodes.
