Hello Jack, I can't tell if you can receive iBBC in Phils, as Iam in the UK,

but if it's on the internet you should receive it in any country as long you've

got broadband.

cheers

Hello Jimeve, thanks for your support.
That's it, all I want to find out is if there is an alternative to the only BBC News channel which is available on cable Tv back in the Phils and which is frankly quiet boring after a while.
The reason I'm asking is because I suspect that the BBC is blocking off viewers from outside the UK/Europe for copyright reasons.

look up proxy servers. they mask your origin. instructions will be on the site. you need one located in the uk. there are many free ones
