    I have no idea what a VPN is but I think I need one. 
    I feel like Rowan Atkinson on the Not the nine o’clock news sketch asking to buy a gramophone. 
    At a risk of a woosh, it's a Virtual Private Network, and allows your computer to be seen as in a foreign country, so you can watch CATV as an International viewer, I use Nord VPN, and it's been no problem...
    No idea what the Rowan Atkinson sketch is...😉
    Thank you. I shall go for Nord. I guess this is something you download? 
    Hopefully self explanatory!
    Go to the OS, and search "Nord VPN", there is a link to join there...good luck

    I’ve been using Nord,  £80 for two years, went half with my daughter, also got a £20 Amazon   voucher with the deal, didn’t go halves with her on that. 😉Bang, over the bar.

    Another vote here for NordVPN. Been faultless. 
    If watching stuff on YouTube and you don't want adverts set your VPN to Albania

    It's a magnificent piece of comedy built around the situation where the stooge has little or no knowledge of a given topic and is then effectively humiliated by the all-knowing front man.

    A bit like Charlton Life really ... Grandad.

    Hey Arsene,

    Yes I use Nord and found it to be the most reliable and user friendly interface for less technical users ( for reference I work in cyber security and its what I advise my dad to use). Very occasionally the powers at be may recognise the IP address as one linked to VPN just simply refresh selection and you should get a new IP.

    Yes, this happened a few times with ITV X and I just changed location from London to say Manchester or Edinburgh and it worked. Happend more often with Express but again changing location solved matters with that too. Nord just feels a bit more stable but I don't think you can go worng with either.

    Does the VPN on anti virus like Norton etc do the job?

    Should do. The one on my McAfee does.
