If you click on any of the above images of Granada they will enlarge and sometimes there is more info.
I am staying in for a while in an apartment in la Herradura. There is a fast internet conection but no British television. I like to watch the football and some soaps which are on the BBC. When I try to use the BBC iplayer I get a message saying that I cannot connect because I am not in the UK. I normally live in the UK and I pay my TV license. Is there a way of getting round this. I was speaking to someone in a bar and he said that it is possible to get a proxy or something. Any ideas?
What you need is a VPN or Virtual Private Network. It lets you connect to internet via another computer which is in a different location. So it seems as if you are in that location to the BBC or ITV The best company I have found is purevpn They have very cheap long term rates. They have a plugin for chrome which is very good for IPLAYER and an installable ap which is also very good Here is the link: https://www.purevpn.com/ (https://billing.purevpn.com/aff.php?aff=45812)Links: BBC IPLAYER https://bbc.co.uk/iplayer/ (https://bbc.co.uk/iplayer/) ITV PLAYER https://itv.com/itvplayer/ (https://itv.com/itvplayer/) CHANNEL 4 https://www.channel4.com/now/c4 (https://www.channel4.com/now/c4) HBO www.filmon.com/subscriptions (https://www.filmon.com/subscriptions)
There is a site where you can watch streaming British TV for free here.https://filmon.com It seems too good to be true.
You can now use Netflix in Spain. You can use a VPN for get US netflix or British Netflix although you need a specific VPN like pur VPN to do that. There are differences between the netflix offerings in each country. https://www.purevpn.com/ (https://billing.purevpn.com/aff.php?aff=45812)
