iTunes will not pick up just one of my podcasts, why?

Hello, I'm having an issue with just one show on my podcast.

My feed is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/CinemaRecon

My website is: www.cinemarecon.com (hosted by Wordpress)

My iTunes URL is: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id480083236

I have have created 9 podcasts so far, and just one is having issues in iTunes. "Episode 10/01/11" will not download into the iTunes player. The mp3 plays and downloads without issue in my Feed.

Can anyone tell me what I have done wrong? Thanks

The URL for this episode in the 'enclosure' tag is

http://cinemarecon.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/cinema-recon-04.mp3

There is no file at this address. The correct address appears to be

http://cinemarecon.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/cinema-recon-041.mp3

The Feedproxy link in 'media content' redirect to this but it's the URL in the 'enclosure' tag which iTunes uses.

Thank you so much! You were absoultely right, I found the incorrect enclosure tag by looking at at the HTML of my relevant post in Wordpress. I had uploaded this MP3 initially to Wordpress and then wanted to make some changes. After deleting the first version and then adding the second, Wordpress slapped the (1) on the end of my file, even though no other file with the same name existed. A little annoying, but something I am glad I am aware of now.

Thanks!
