If one click one of the videos a form pops up:

Currently BBC iPlayer TV programmes are available to play in the UK only, but all BBC iPlayer Radio programmes are available to you. Why?

If you are in the UK and see this message please read this advice.

Go to Radio channels home page


We simply get charged licence fee for public broadcost (tv, radio) for owning an "computer ready to connect to the internet." Lucky as we are it is included in the normal fee.

OTHO buisness comps are not excluded. (what I think is legal since a have a radio lifestream of a public radio station running all day)

Update:

Thanks for the idea. I like the BBC.
Do they still broadcast "The Archers?"
