And after all that, you wouldn't be able to watch Holby City or any other BBC programme. Not from the BBC anyway, you have to have a UK IP/connection to watch BBC/ITV/Sky channels, overseas connections are blocked. I have seen expensive packages where you can watch British TV on a PC with a broadband connection, but never heard much good about them - they are illegal, poor quality and unreliable.
Now if you had Sky+ in the UK, you were here and forgot to record it, you could send a text to the box telling it to record it for you so it's ready for you to watch when you get back to Englandshire.
