bbc iPlayer removed after update

Hi, my Sony TV KD 49XE8396 has just updated (automatically) and as part of the update BBC iPlayer (and some other TV apps) have been removed.  This is a 2017 model tv and is still supported by BBC so I don't understand what Android/Sony are playing at.  Fix needed asap or I'll be off to buy a TV that supports the most used TV app in the UK.  Smart TV?  I dont think so!

Hi @Burtchase  Have you looked in Sony Select? I have the same software as you and all the iPlayers are in Sony Select.

Try looking under Live TV & Catchup as well, that's the new "YouView" as far as I can tell.

I found iplayer there on Sony select but after an update to my bravia tv today, I get 'an error has occurred. Please try again later'

Other apps seem to be working
