Can't get iplayer from abroad. At least, I never could, no matter what tricks I tried.

If you do, remember your pathetic weight allowance on the plane!

I lived in Greece for many years, as I said earlier, and lost the BBC. I could have received BBC if I'd bought a dish 4m wide.

A new satellite dish the size of Mars, perhaps. (We could have got BBC if we'd acquired a dish 4 metres, yes 4 metres, wide.)

Never heard that but with the newer cards and fancy bits, suppose it could be true.

You have to give a UK address so you need a loving rellie who uses Freeview.

Viewing UK satellite programmes in Continental Europe has long been illegal. Most people just bypass it, though. We lost BBC1 and BBC2 while living in Greece. Then a few years later, we gained ITV. Some of the companies change satellites from time to time and that can affect the channels you get.
