Very neat on-demand service to view most of BBC's UK TV broadcasts online for 7 days.

It can be viewed for a week from broadcast, or downloaded and viewed within 30 days.

The site says content can only be downloaded in the UK. Just wondered if the online viewing is available outside of Her Maj's shores?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/

If it does work abroad, there's some neat content to view at the moment.

It's an absolutely awesome tool.

But I tried linking it here a few months ago, for some wildlife stuff, and Tare told me it didn't work for her, I think.

Maybe they could be at least nice to make us an BBC America site.

Bummer.

Sorry for the distraction, but the terms & conditions implied it was the download ooption that was UK only.

Hmmm... Worked for me. Dunno if I can actually download anything, but the page loads. Interesting. I think I've only heard of about half the shows on there...

The page loads fine, but once you attempt to download or stream a program, it pops up with a "No can do" message.
