All the BBC abroad is available for free over the internet via BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Five. BBC and ITV have all their live channels broadcasted in HD so there is real TV experience or watching programmes on demand. A laptop is also very easy to connect to TV. But, there now exists a simple, fast and light weight solution - Internet TV. The requirements are: high speed internet connection (minimum 1 mb), a computer (laptop, PC, Mac, Linux, iPhone, iPad or Smart phones) and a VPN (Virtual Private Network) account. The reason why BBC iplayer is funded by the UK TV license; if the TV license is not applied for and paid, then there is no right to watch BBC iplayer abroad.

The two main methods are with a proxy server, where all traffic is essentially filtered and sent via another computer OR with a Virtual Private Network, which goes a step further and essentially replaces local ISP with a different connection. There is no reason to know anything about either, they can both be used to watch BBC iPlayer abroad, and VPNs have the slight advantage in that they allow to download shows from BBC iPlayer as well as watching them live.


The BBC iplayer received the approval of the BBC Trust and an open beta for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 was launched, where it was announced that only a fixed number of people would be able to sign up for the service, with a controlled increase in users over the summer.

There are lots of sites on the internet that show how BBC iplayer abroad can be paid and watched. However while it is possible to watch BBC iplayer abroad for free it is not actually shown how.

Of course it is possible to watch BBC iPlayer abroad. A lot of options are available on the internet. Many of them are either costly or just don’t work. However, there are just a couple of true options to watch BBC iPlayer abroad. That is reliable methods which always work.

All that is required to watch BBC iplayer abroad is make it seem as if the spectator is located in the United Kingdom.
