In the XML source you can see:

<title>BBC iPlayer - Music Dance &amp; Electronica category</title>

Which is exactly what Akregator uses as the name when you add the feed to it, that is, it does not perform XML entity decoding on the title contents.

Expected: BBC iPlayer - Music Dance & Electronica category
Actual: BBC iPlayer - Music Dance &amp; Electronica category

Confirmed, the parser returns HTML but Akregator apparently doesn't resolve entities correctly for feed titles. Works for item titles though.
