Can I use BBC iPlayer iPad app when outside the UK?

Unfortunately not, although we are aware of demand for an international version of BBC iPlayer. Rights agreements mean that we can only make BBC iPlayer television programmes available within the UK. Currently, we don't have the capacity to serve radio content (live or listen again) to mobile devices overseas. However, you can listen to live BBC radio when outside the UK via a desktop computer.
