You’ve earned your retirement. The sun is shining, the pace is slower, and life abroad is good — but there’s still one thing you miss from back home:
British television.
Whether it’s BBC News in the morning, a comforting episode of EastEnders, or Saturday night’s Strictly, British TV is part of everyday life for many retirees. And when you try to stream it abroad, you’re likely to see:
“This content isn’t available in your location.”
It’s frustrating — especially when you’re just trying to relax in the evening with a cuppa or glass of wine.
Here’s the simple, stress-free way to fix it — no tech knowledge required.
Streaming services like BBC iPlayer, ITVX, and Channel 4 are limited to viewers within the UK due to licensing restrictions. They check your IP address to decide whether to allow access.
If you’re living in Spain, Portugal or anywhere else outside the UK, your IP gives you away — and you get blocked.
Even popular VPNs are no longer reliable. That’s because:
If you’ve been fighting with your telly or apps for hours — you’re not alone.
At Stream UK TV Abroad, we offer a better solution: a VPN router that’s already set up to use a genuine UK residential broadband IP address.
This means your TV, tablet, Firestick, or iPad abroad behaves exactly as if it’s in the UK.
You don’t have to install apps or touch any settings. Just:
No buffering. No blocks. No technical hassle.
Many of our customers are expats in Spain, France and Portugal. They simply want a solution that works — without needing to be a tech expert.
Once connected, you can stream all your favourites, including:
Everything works just as it would in your living room back in the UK.
Moving abroad shouldn’t mean giving up the things you enjoy — and British TV is one of them.
If you’re retired in Spain or elsewhere in Europe and tired of fighting with VPNs, buffering, or disappearing apps, a VPN router with a UK residential IP is the easy, one-time fix.
No more errors. No more tech problems. Just the shows you love, ready when you are.
