I'm 99% sure they introduced a non-flash service in beta recently.

Edit: Yeah, you can opt-in with a button on the right column here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/html5




Only for iPlayer, not for example on BBC News video clips, and not even 100% of iPlayer content yet. Still progress I suppose.


True. Hopefully this is a test and once they get it working they'll roll it out across the BBC sites.


Yes I was aware of the iPlayer HTML5 opt-in which is what I was hoping to see for the rest of the site. Given that they have all the content in HTML5-friendly video anyway it shouldn't be all that painful.
