Does it keep stopping? Could it be your internet speed streaming slowly? That's when my iPlayer hasn't previously worked...

Start --> Control Panel --> Add or Remove Programs and then select BBC IPlayer from the list and select remove. Should do the rest....

Try this link to the iplayer help page

http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/
Preferred cinemas:
Central London and North London as far north as the Hampstead Everyman including Picturehouse Hackney/Notting Hill Gate - but not Wood Green and North Finchley as they are just a bit too far.
