About Expat Shield?

"Expat Shield is a VPN software solution designed to enable users to access UK TV websites including BBC iPlayer and ITV from anywhere outside the UK. By routing your IP address through a UK IP address, Expat Shield creates the appearance of being located in the UK, allowing for seamless access to otherwise restricted content. This is especially useful as the BBC typically blocks access to its services, both online and through the BBC iPlayer program, from IP addresses outside the UK."
