Send to you?
 
After reading loads of threads about stuff you miss.

I am going to ask the infamous question.

If you could request something to be sent to you what would it be?

I've heard a few people missing UK TV, I'm wondering if many over there are making use of the VoD services? BBC and C4 currently have them, and I think ITV is jumping on the bandwagon too soon. Although you'd really need an uncapped monthly broadband tarrif to make use of them fully.

BBC iplayer and Channel 4OD is only available to people who live in the UK.

An IP address outside of the UK can't access the services.

The BBC are working to set up a service for BBC World but is quite a way off it seems.........

hmmm. I didn't know they ip restricted, that kind of sucks - although I guess you could use a UK based proxy or something similar to get around this.

Some frost and a sprinkling of snow on Christmas morning - doesn't feel the same with light nights and warm sunny days! :blink:
