Try adding "+trace" to that query and you may get a bit more information 
about where it fails.

FWIW: running this in the UK works fine (see below).

I think it would be a good idea if bd. were to have an additional 
secondary which were completely outside the country (and with a name not 
underneath the bd top-level domain).
