In the meantime, (very simple) RSS feeds for:

BBC Radio 4: http://feed43.com/6850170175677420.xml

BBC Radio 4 Extra: http://feed43.com/0368773044446056.xml

BBC World Sercice: http://feed43.com/7513358207062358.xml
hmmm. I'm no expert and i personally don't think it's too clear what you're trying to achieve - but as far as i can tell your feed43 links are wrong.

There's no actual weblinks produced.

Here's the radio 4 one I knocked up with the feed43 search pattern

<a class="url" href="{%}"{*}<{*}class="title">{%}</span>

This produced http://feed43.com/1538032268018155.xml

I put this into a recipe below (first 5 feeds only)
Spoiler:



Code:
class AdvancedUserRecipe1325525152(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'BBC Radio Schedule'
    oldest_article = 7
    max_articles_per_feed = 5
    auto_cleanup = True

    feeds          = [
	(u'BBC Radio 4',u'http://feed43.com/1538032268018155.xml'),
	]


and it produced the following (mobi - hence TOC at end)
