814527 2009-09-27 21:17:00 Is there a way of tricking overseas wbsites into letting them think you are in their region so you can lookk at the content. I want to be able to watch match of the day2 on the beeb and it tells me "Cannot play media. Sorry, this media is not available in your territory".

news.bbc.co.uk

thanks

You could try this (http://www.footytube.com/) though for football highlights :thumbs:.
