BBC America can be found on most cable/satelite providers. It's good in the evening but crap during the day (unless you want to watch cooking/DIY/Cash in the attic type shows)

UKNova is a way to download some uk programs from the internet. Very hard to signup as they have a limited number of users.

When you want BBC America you end up having to pay for other channels that are part of the package from your cable company, and before you know it your paying for full cable which is about $90 a month, thats out the window for us after christmas, we have to save big time for our plans to move back home, so basic cable it will be FFS.

to get BBCA for us, it was just an extra $5, and that included 5 other channels as part of the enhanced basic package, and we're only paying $110 a month which includes the high speed broadband and the phone package which includes free nationwide calling...hell of a lot cheaper than when we were up in maine, that's for sure.

There's a new series on BBC called "Jam and Jerusalem" Funny, quirky and a bit like the "Vicar of Dibley". It may reach you in a bit.

That looked a bit odd, and a bit like something else, so didn't bother with it...but it was good then eh...hmmm...
