I don't understand how BasilC can state that Plucker works perfectly with BBC Russian, since we both know it doesn't.
Yes it does. You have to use the low-graphics version of the site and bear in mind that Plucker has a different definition of "depth" than, for instance, HandStory (in Plucker "1" = just the initial page, which HS refers to as "0").

Initial URL: http://news.bbc.co.uk/low/russian/news
Depth: 2
Images: uncheck "Include Images"

I've just tested it. It took 20 seconds to run (broadband, admittedly), producing 19 different stories and a file size of 53kB. I use Interpilot to read it (I have Interpilot Russian or Czech activated most of the time, since it produces a more legible font in English too!)[
