BBC iplayer going global

Post by caller »

Just saw this on the UK-Thai forum I use, thought it might be of interest here:

My wife's just come back from the Temple, and I've given her the good news that she'll be able to watch Eastenders when we retire to Thailand next year.

Her response was, "What about Emmerdale?" Does anybody know if ITV's player will work in Thailand please?

Don't worry BB, all these things can be found here. http://www.thebox.bz/browse.php?page=0

Make sure you download them overnight so she can watch them during the day, leaving the evenings free for the footy. :cheers:

Thanks for the re-assurance JD - that's made Mrs BB happy. Unfortunately, that link doesn't work in the UK.

It does here, I've given it to many expats, even in China. Anything on any of the regular TV stations gets uploaded within minutes of it being broadcast - even Sky TV. You may need an invite to join, but I have 9 invites readily available at any time.

I wasn't doubting you - I remember others saying that it worked for them. I'll be in touch, asking for an invite when I arrive next year (early retirement permitting).
