It's because it's an internet stream so the fast forward actually just skips to the appropriate time point, rather than streaming the entire programme to the point you want

Netflix works the same way, they've just added some stills into it to help you work out where you are.
The old version of the BBC i-Player at least had a 'position bar' and so you knew roughly how far you had progressed into the programme.

With the new one, it is a total guesstimate!
