if you have one of these download the filmon free app and you can watch all uk tv for free
yeah i only got an i phone but i just prop it up next to me,the picture and sound quality is brilliant

Two months late fethiyeflo - {A Link to an old CBF topic was here - no longer available}42969
You may be able to connect your iphone to a normal tv too - check out that link.
-
:-( ahhh never mind i have only just got an iphone
i will go and look at that link thanks
-
There a lots of free apps these days so if you are looking for anything just post it on here and I'll let you know if something free is available - there's quite a few iphone users on CBF who resent paying for apps wherever possible (me included). Not too much for British TV abroad though - Filmon is indeed the kiddie for that.
-
If you miss UK radio too, this is a brilliant (and free) app that works abroad: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/the-radio/id398484425?mt=8

So when we move over there in March and get our broadband set up, what is the best way to get some UK TV ?
-
iphone/pad - filmon app - connection to tv via hd cable.
-

Be careful then as I think they will remove it during your next sync/update. I had no idea till I read the post from legless above - I checked and it is gone from my iphone and gone from itunes too :-\
-
Up dated my iphone app today..
still running filmon. looking at iy now,
-
Is your iphone jailbroken Barry?
-
Filmon plus is available from today - just downloaded it. Only works on wifi now tough and not 3g.

Hi to watch UK tv you can do it via your laptop with a proxy server (a service which re-directs your computer to the uk and fools it to thinking it is still in UK as illegal to watch UK out of UK due to licence. Try ex-pat shield a free one (although slower and a few ads) or my private network (£5) a month - many others similiar. All you need then is a VGA cable and sound cable which connect tv to computer and its like you were at home
-
Thanks for the advice, now all I have to do is get there, get the residency sorted out, get the land line sorted, get broadband set up and them I'm sorted' or have I missed something?
Anyway, it will stop me getting bored !
-
No Keith not done that yet.
I have upgraded to IOS5, in uk at the mo...
will update you when I return. But with the hdmi lead its been a great Free service.
-
It's strange Barry as mine isn't jailbroken either and I am on IOS5 too - so why did it disappear from mine (and my Itunes app list) but yours is still there!
-
ah... mine did go off for a short time... and was replaced by the dreaded tvcatchup.
but I downloaded filmon again and all is well.
have now got tvcatchup as well.
-
I really like that I would get to watch tv on my mobile though not really enticed to having everything cramped to a 3.5 inch screen. But nevertheless, it still is an option if your favorite show is currently airing with you having no chance to watch it on a regular screen, or even record it for later viewing.
I just hope that this app grows better for a longer support date.
