Due to british copyright laws, television broadcast streams are only accesable from the UK and Ireland.
It appears not, "this video is only available to be viewed within the United Kingdom".

Not even the youtube link? hmmm

has anyone searched google video? http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=the...firefox-a&aq=f
I found it listed, but with the .co.uk suffix, so I don't know what that means for anyone outside the UK

Either you're taking the piss or there's a smiley missing in your post.

If something is quoted then followed with a comment relating to that quote then it should be fairly obvious that the comment is about what was quoted.

The youtube link works fine - at least from here.

I've made the experience that the uk broadcasters mostly make their streams only accessable from a british IP, channel4 also lets the Irish watch their streams. Usually british tv clears the rights to use external images only for the islands, most other european stations have their streaming media accessable from european IPs or even worldwide.
glad to give out uninteresting background infos...

Very true Jumpy.

It has recently dawned on me that the UK Government is creating a 'Fear State'. Everything (major) is depicted to the general populace as a threat to your/our health, security, way of life etc......and becomes 'authorised' based on the embellished half truth of the initial situation.

Of course, when the exact truth becomes public knowledge, it's all ok because at the time, public support backed the motion.

Yes, but it had nothing to do with what was written so it wasn't and then he appears to take personal offence at something which wasn't even directed to him.
