Re: harmonica on bbc iplayer

It's not available, it says, outside the U.K. Anybody have a workaround?

I guess the BBC have their reasons but I don't know what they are. If everyone did what they do (i.e. restrict their data to their own country) then the internet would be a dull place.

Re: harmonica on bbc iplayer

its cos we all pay £120 quid for the TV license.
and people would get annoyed if the foreigners got it for free

Re: harmonica on bbc iplayer

Can I use BBC iPlayer outside the UK?

Rights agreements mean that BBC iPlayer television programmes are only available to users to download or stream (Click to Play) in the UK. However, BBC Worldwide is working on an international version, which we will make available as soon as possible.

"..which we will make available.."
Jamascc, do you work for the BBC (worldwide) whilst
living west of Brisbane in Oz?!
