I was slightly irritated that the BBC removed the “England” option in the regions drop-down well before launching the HD regions on iPlayer. I’d previously used that to stream BBC One HD (red screen version, of course) but lost the chance to do that around Christmas.

Not sure what device you are using iPlayer on, but when I access it through browser, the ability to choose England and get regionless HD stream is alive and well.

I watch on a variety of devices using the same BBC ID. Previously, the England option was available everywhere and synced across devices - so Youview, iOS and so on appeared to correctly stream HD BBC One. That syncing appears to have broken, and on Youview and iOS England doesn’t seem to be an option any more.

On a web browser, as you say, it is though.
