Re: UK based VPN
If you want to watch iPlayer ( and past shows) you do need a UK VPN but if you just want to watch LIVE TV and UK news...see here:

I'll PM people with the info but I won't post it publicly and I urge others not to post details of working solutions. These boards are scanned by people who want to stop VPNs working.

Coz they all have 'Spugsyitis'....

Re: UK based VPN
because those of us, say in Oman, or similar countries find that their service provider thinks that that particular word is p0rn and blocks all the websites. so getting a PM (for heaven's sake dont write it in the open) with the email address of a company is very useful.

Re: UK based VPN
Could someone please PM me with a working VPN solution? 
Desperately need to watch some English TV now.. German channels just aren't the same, especially when you don't speak the language! lol.
Thanks.

LogMeIn Hamachi actually seems like a good solution at the moment.
Basically using a friends connection in the UK -very easy to setup!

Re: UK based VPN
it's in my post above ... i want something that works and don't mind paying for it. the last 'free' solution i looked at (filmon.com) actually said in its user agreement that they had the right to pass on you email address! im happy with paying a fiver a month and getting some privacy and support.
