Is anyone experiencing issues watching live TV on iplayer after latest Apple software update

Please describe what kind of issues.
Are theses issues specific to this one app?
Try this for any misbehaving app:
The app is on the Apple TV 4K box and when selecting to watch a live channel on BBC IPlayer app the video is running 2hours behind the current time. It is possible to fast forward to current time. I spent almost an hour with Apple support yesterday including a live video feed of my tv screen. I have never seen this problem before the TVos update to 14.5. I have tried all the obvious reboots, uninstalls and reinstalls etc. I even changed the time zone and back again.
This wasn't happening last night, but I now see it. Strange. The watch from and watch live options seem to do the same thing.
I assume it's a result of the update, but I had the update installed last night.
The BBC are now aware and on the case:

Not here and iPlayer is something I watch a lot. (6 x Apple TV)
That’s a relief, hopefully Apple will get on the case
Yes. When I watch BBC iplayer, it’s delayed by around 3 hours, so I can’t watch it live.
It's a bug in tvOS 14.5. It's fixed in the upcoming .6
