Hi Eleanor,

The easylinks site has listings of what programmes are on B B C but you can't view the programmes there.

All the best,

Francis.

very interesting Flor. My question however related to accessing the BBC throu a link on a PC. On this list before for example we discussed the fact that it was not possible to use the BBC iPlayer because of not being licence holders. Maybe I got that wrong.

Eleanor,

Probably not, I can say. there are also  - besides Sky satellite
subscriptions - free-to-air satellite system set top boxes which can be
set up to receive BBC and other UK TV/radio stations, similar to
Freeview or YouView in the UK,  (as we are in the Astra 2D footprint
area). I 'watched' episode 2 of Terry's programme. Missed the first, but
the second was better anyhow, it appears.

does that mean you picked up BBC on your PC without a licence? Just
curious.

Hi in particular Francis,
a bit late with this but better late than never!

I wonder what TV Listing you say are using for BBC 1?

I see that from your listings a few Sundays ago Andrew Marr was
mentioned
for nine PM Whilst Terry Wogan's Ireland was on other regions at the
same
time!

I picked up Wogan's show on BBC 2 London and also see from an Irish
Sunday
Terry's programme listed, presumably BBC 1 NI.

I must say it's a great site you have but a little tweaking as I refer
to
here would  make it even greater!
