24 Series 5 - Watching in the UK without Sky!?!?!?!

[JNMann]

I am desperate to watch series 5 of 24 in the UK. I don't have Sky so can't watch it that way.
Is there any other way to get hold of it in the UK yet legally? I trued to buy copies off Ebay twice as a last resort but both failed.
Please help!!!!!

Don't bother with eBay if you want legal copies!

You can either wait for the DVD, or if you have Freeview for the fta showing on Sky Three. You may be able to d/l episodes from iTunes, but this may require a US proxy and credit card.

Forget freeview - As a big 24 fan I hoped the 24 I saw being shown on sky 3 would be the latest series, but it wasn't.

Also, just to say it is still being shown in the states, so until it ends, there won't be any official DVD release over there either. As we are only about 5 or 6 weeks behind, you may as well wait - from what I remember, for the last two series (shown on Sky) there was a UK DVD release straight after the last episode was aired.

I should have got Sky before it started!!! I heard that the DVD won't be released in the UK for a long while, will have to look at bringing in from th US I guess. Thanks for the advice.

RTE 2 in Ireland showed 24 last year in the summer. I hope when will be showing it this year too cos it is a class show. You can get RTE2 in the uk if you live beside the irish sea i think
