MikeO Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Robin Williams dead, apparent suicide. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-28749702 Very sad about that, real comedy genius and all round nice guy, but was always a troubled man.

Romey 1878 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Some of my favourite films have him in them. Sad stuff indeed. Thoughts go out to those he left behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 This would be a great solution. Mind you, the real answer is for the BBC to stop its ridiculous policy of blocking videos to viewers currently outside Britain. I know of no other company/site in the world that does this. Typical government-run company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 But that's true of plenty of other sites around the world paid for with taxes. I can watch NPR videos from anywhere for example - not that I ever have from outside the US. Why would commercial sites paid for by local advertising be any different? Plus, even if you pay a tv license fee, you can't watch videos while traveling overseas. It's just ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical government-run company. As I said in the first post, I'm refused access to NBC videos unless I change my "location" to the US, haven't researched much beyond that (though I've come across youtube music vids that are "not available in your region" in the past). So it's not just the beeb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's not just the beeb. Then I stand corrected. Sorry. When listening one evening to cricket from Australia, I could hear radio commentary from the Australian news service but was blocked from the BBC. That too seemed odd.

Matt Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Might it be because people here are paying for the bbc through the TV license and people from other countries aren't? I can watch BBC TV (1,2,3,4, News) as part of my subscription in Switzerland, and was also for free in Holland. The TV licence is a joke.
