Hello and welcome to Canada. :thumbup: I originally hail from The Rhondda in South Wales. Been here 3 years and don't really worry about british programes. We get Corrie, Eastenders and a load of other old old half hour programs but they are so old. I watch the occassional Ab Fab but that's about it.

I am sure there is someone on here with a link that you can use.

Welcome to sunny Calgary.

Well for Footy I use Setanta (cable) or atdhe( dot )net for live streaming games.

I have also watched a bunch of tv using torrents.

I'm originally from Manchester and so that's kinda like Wales really - I mean I spent most of my summers in Llandudno or Conway Castle or climbing Snowden!

Have you been reading my geography exam?????

Hello to you too!

I agree with Lorna that after a while you won't really be all that fussed with British tv and instead you will become accustomed to watching s**t docusoaps on TLC about men who are 3ft tall, bake cakes, have 23 wives and reposses cars on the side.
