The podcast host's server refuses to respond (403 error)

App version: 2.5.0 (6a366f0ad) (from Google Play)

Android version: 10 QKQ1

Device model: Redmi7A

Expected behaviour:
it should download the podcast

Current behaviour:
It doesn’t download

First occurred:
today

Steps to reproduce:

  1. open the science hour (BBC) podcast
  2. download the last one from the 20 March (title: “covid in the sewers”)

I can download the previous episode, but not this one.

Could they have blocked it for people living abroad?

I installed the BBC app and it says that the podcast can only be played in UK. So that’s most probably the source of the problem
