BBC iPlayer doesnt' allow to watch programmes, if you are located outside UK.

Is there any way to bypass this restriction? |

| Maybe using a proxy in the UK could work. |

| I've read elsewhere that it could work, but it doesn't work for me, unless I don't configure it right. |

| AFAIK it's the only way to change its IP on Internet. |

| Would you be so kind to explain me how to find a proxy server located in the UK? |

Finally, I got it working!
The main problem is to found a working proxy server located in Great Britain.
Some hours ago before I posted this topic, I visited the web page pteppic gave, and I didn't find any working server. Then following again this link, I found only one proxy server in UK, but it worked.
Thank you very much for your help. |

1) Apply for UK citizenship/residency/asylum
2) Get a permanent address in the UK
3) Pay a ~£110/year fee for the TV Licence.
Sorry but the reason non-UK IPs are denied access is because it is a public-sector broadcaster paid for by UK citizens via the licence fee. Watching it from outside the UK (unless via a licensed affiliate broadcaster in your country) is illegal. I'm just sayin'. |

If you are in Europe, get a sat dish and point it to 28,2E.  |
