iPlayer IMDB film ratings
Description from store

Ever wanted to know which films to watch and which to avoid from the selection available on BBC iPlayer? This extension displays a little IMDB icon and rating next to each film so you can easily see at a glance whether a film is worth your time or you can click the link to the IMDB page for that film to get more information.

Version 1.2: Updated for the new iPlayer redesign. Click Categories > Films to see the ratings.

Note this is an unofficial extension and it could stop working should the iPlayer website get a significant update. Please leave a rating if you'd like to see the extension maintained :)

This extension is open source and the code is available here: https://github.com/alexspurling/iplayerimdb

Great again. Could be improved by including rotten tomato ratings too.
