Watch iPlayer in Spain

Have you ever tried to access the BBC iPlayer only to be told that as you are not resident in the UK then you are not eligible to watch?
I'm sure many expats will already know about the Expat Shield programme which enables you to access iPlayer on your PC if you live abroad, but for those who don't then it's just a simple matter of going to their website and downloading their programme which will then allow you to watch BBC iPlayer etc just as though you were in the UK! It really does work and is completely free of charge! Have a look at their website here EXPAT SHIELD

Expatshield does not work with Windows 8, I would strongly recommend using a dedicated VPN service, very fast and very cheap, a couple of pounds/euros a month at most. A good article about this is at http://www.vpncompare.co.uk/how-to-watch-bbc-iplayer-from-abroad/
