Lightbulb BBC iPlayer in Saudi

Hi, iPlayer detects the IP address and blocks access outside UK.

There are some premium options, but are there any free ones by which I can access the BBC IPlayer?

Thanks in advance.

Thumbs up Re: BBC iPlayer in Saudi

Ok that seems a good one, but as they say one bitten, forever smitten and I've been done badly by credit card rougues.

I wonder how to do this for free (without a PhD in Geeky stuff)

pain in the arse process, but google iplayer proxy and you'll see a way that uses the Tor plugin in for Firefox....not worth the hassle though.
