Cannot say for certain, but could be that iPlayer detected the VPN and blocked you, but the others did not. Maybe a VPN change could sort it.

It's certainly your use of a VPN that is the problem (well known). The BBC detects VPNs and blocks them. Changing VPN will not solve the problem, you need to subscribe to a DNS service that assigns you a UK address.

There are quite a few "smart UK DNS" services that offer a free one day trial.
