I know you can get programming from other countries on Dish but am not seeing info on this for British television. Anyone know if it's possible to get it here in America on any supplier?

I use this http://www.filmon.com/tv/index.php it is live TV the timing is not always great and you watch via the computer....but i do get to watch up to date Corrie at 2pm US time :)

As for for TV suppliers I assume there is only BBC America....which is ok if you want to watch How clean is your house or Ramsey all the time.

There is this thread on the UK forums also http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...14912&hl=TV for other ideas on how to watch UK TV
