I get very different results with this. I wonder why?

Speaking of iPlayer, do you think people overseas will be able to watch Euro 2016 matches via the Beeb by using a VPN to mask their location? Or are they going to be extra "cautious" when it comes to this summer's major sporting event?

Amazulu

Good question. I would imagine no. No need to use a VPN either - just use a DNS redirect

I think that the days of iplayer being an international free for all are coming to an end though. Under their current, backward, TV tax model, the BBC has to basically give away for free on the internet, everything that they produce. They really should become a commercial organisation but in reality they will opt for some kind of subscription based service

The new Top Gear - what to say

It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be

They've kept a lot of the old format

Le Blanc was okay but Evans came across as an excited, annoying child. They didn't have much chemistry but that can develop

The new Mini Cooper works/rally section is just silly IMO. Star in a reasonably priced car was great in that you had celebrities driving an average, low powdered car - many of them making themselves look silly. Time will tell if they have got this right

Jury's out. I'll give it time

I can't abide Chris Evans. I could probably have watched it if it had been anybody else but him. I just can't stand him.

Will avoid as a result.

He's the wrong choice for TG

Gingerist.

Swerv-o

No, I like gingers. I would describe myself as tw*tist though...

Yeah I'm not a fan of Twitter either.

This may be of use to some, and should work.

Presto, free for 6 months. Promo code : TELTTV6

Beoz

Cool. Let me give that a shot.

I can only see a 1 month free option. Where do you go to get the 6 month option with code?

GarryP

I think it works if you haven't previously used a code, or if you are in the final month of a previous code.

These things are always a bit hit and miss - they want you to pay.

Might be of interest to the football fans.

2 episodes into Preacher and it's looking like it's going to be awesome

I downloaded and not sure if it's being streamed by the usual suspects
