\n\tLONDON: The BBC has launched the latest version of its VOD iPlayer, which has been redesigned from the ground up and has a slew of new content.<\/p>\n
\n\tBBC iPlayer has a new look and feel, designed to make finding content simpler, discovering content easier and allows more options for curation of content. There are more advanced recommendations, smarter search functionality and improved access to channels and categories. In the coming months, the BBC iPlayer mobile and tablet apps will be updated with the new look and feel.<\/p>\n
\n\tA raft of new content has been commissioned for the service as well. This includes the original drama shorts Tag<\/em>, Flea<\/em> and My Jihad<\/em>, as well as seven original comedy shorts, among them Micky Flanagan's Foxageddon<\/em> and Reece Shearsmith's The Case of the High Foot<\/em>. The acclaimed journalist and storyteller Adam Curtis will bring iPlayer a radical vision of contemporary Britain, exploring the themes of hypocrisy, deception and corruption with his iPlayer trilogy: Out There<\/em>, At The Mountains Of Madness<\/em> and Dream Baby Dream<\/em>. iPlayer users can take a guided tour of Matisse The Cut-Outs Exhibition at Tate Modern led by musician and artist Goldie. There is new series premiere of People Just Do Nothing<\/em>, a show born on BBC iPlayer through the first batch of BBC Three Comedy Feeds. Additionally, there is an exclusive BBC iPlayer film, My God, It’s Full Of Fans<\/em>, to accompany the BBC Two series on the history of science fiction My God, It’s Full Of Stars<\/em>.<\/p>\n \n\tTony Hall, director-general of the BBC, commented: "This is an exciting day for us. BBC iPlayer is really popular, and new iPlayer will be even better. You’ll be able to find so many more programs you might like—and I hope everyone enjoys the new design. It’s just a first step to re-inventing BBC iPlayer, the best online television service in the world.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" LONDON: The BBC has launched the latest version of its VOD iPlayer, which has been redesigned from the ground up and has a slew of new content.
