Default Watching NZ TV back in the UK

Hello,

There are a few shows on NZ telly I wanted to catch-up on but now I'm back in the UK the video won't play for users in my location.

I know about expat shield and tunnelbear for watching UK TV abroad - are there any for NZ telly anyone knows of?

Thanks for the help if any of you have any ideas!

You can use hola.org for free on your computer to view them - they have a paid for service but I haven't investigated that. You just download the add-on for your browser and select the country you want. Should be able to access the catch up sites.

Have to say I had this problem. Missing the great adverts for blokes (crown forklifts, sheep dip, versatile homes) and rugby channel. A NZ proxy is your best bet but you are talking around 10 pounds a month.

I thought that too! I thought the OP must have taken leave of her senses.

I use the hola add on here in the Philippines to watch Uk tv. most times its fine , but our internet is erratic. Just tried telling it to put me in NZ and works fine.
That's in Chrome BTW.
