How long does iPlayer take to upload an episode?

I missed Traitors at 9pm tonight. Thought it's okay, I'll sit down with a brew and watch it once I'd finished what I was doing. Tried at 10.15pm and it wasn't on iPlayer yet. Still waiting an hour later! Had no idea iPlayer took so long to make a programme available after it had been aired. I'm off to bed now feeling slightly irritated. Brew drunk, choc eaten and still tonight's episode is not yet available 😡

It's a first world problem, right enough. I'm sure it'll be up tomorrow.

Maybe the BBC wants to encourage people to watch it ‘live’ as it were (for ratings??) so they don’t put it up straight away?

Not much use now but I always find it quicker to start watching while it's airing (even if only 2 mins to go) and use the 'watch from the start' feature.

Otherwise it sometimes takes until the next day to be loaded up.
