Do You Want To Watch UK Shows? in the USA?


I was whining (Whinging) to one of my UK sewing bloggers about not being able to watch The Great British Sewing Bee; season 2 .

Her sister in New Zealand can, by using Expat Shield.

You have to decide if you want to install this software - I am not a computer expert.

But do you know what this means? I may be able to watch the next season of Downton Abbey when it airs in the UK instead of having to wait (torture) for our American station (PBS) to show it.

Still figuring out what Expat Shield does - how it works but I am watching the season 2, episode 1 of The Great British Sewing Bee right now.

******Friday Update: This free software installed an advertising banner (free = ad supported) which is annoying at the top of your internet pages. It also interfered with my wireless printer when I had to print two shipping labels last night. For now, my solution is to install it when I have free time to watch UK shows and then uninstall it afterwards.

  1. Darn. It doesn't work on a Mac. I'm leery of these types of sites, so keep us posted on your experiences.

  3. A solution, but a bit of a pain, any chance of an old laptop that you can install it on and just use it for watching TV ?
