Unable to play BBC podcasts over fibre broadband

Hi, for about a month I've been unable to play or download BBC podcasts on apps such as Pocket Cast and Podcast Addict over my 500MB broadband fibre connection. Non-BBC streams play fine as do the BBC streams when I'm connected to any mobile or not-VF network. I've switched off VF content filter, tried switching to Google public DNS but no difference. The same podcast episodes do play through the BBC website, BBC Sounds  app and Spotify app non-of which use the open.live.bbc platform. Anyone experiencing same or able to suggest  a fix?

Having the identical problem. Using AntennaPod app on two different Samsung Galaxy smartphones. BBC podcasts stream and download over data but not over Vodafone wifi. If the stream is initiated on data then it will continue after switching over to wifi, even if the stream is paused and restarted hours later.
