bbc i player & itv player

[professorplum13]

I am holidaying in Egypt - if I take my laptop will bbc i player and/or itv player "work" over there?

[hc4361]

No.

hc4361 is correct, according to what I was told by an internet contact who lives in Germany. He said that the BBC puts a block on access to iPlayer from outside the UK.

won't you be too busy being on holiday to watch tv? ;)

The BBC and other UK channels have no choice as they don't have licences to broadcast in many countries.
