Hi Andy
I use Tune In all the time. In fact it's on now as I write, but I'm not
sure you can get TV on it. If I'm wrong, then I haven't obviously
investigated the program enough, but I was desperate to get in the stations
on radio I enjoy. I honestly don't think it does TV as well, but someone
please tell me I'm wrong?
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

I might be wide of the mark here, but isn't there an app called 'tune in?'
that allows you to create a list of favourite radio/TV stations. If so,
isn't this a kind of work around for grabbing stuff of the Iplayer? Bear in
mind, I've not yet even seen an IPlayer of any flavour so far, but have been
researching -

I'm guessing the Iplayer app will take a similar form and probably won't
