Why is it that its always the Uk which looses out.

I tried watching this on BT catchup - but the video freezes on the first frame. The sound continues.

We supposes to be in the EU - and look - the Europeans get the show - we don't.

With this frustration could someone that can get it - download the program - and set it up on a shared cloud? Then maybe we could all see it.
After all I pay for catchup - and its probably the block that means I can't watch it.

Rant over

Cheers - Merry Xmas to all.

The programme is available on the ITV Hub (in the UK at least), you just have to be patient and sit through all the adverts.

Thanks Alan,

My BT catchup is via the Humax Box - which is over the internet opertation for catch-up. The box delivers freeserve from the aerial - and the additional channels via the internet.
The catch-up for this program sees the adverts play perfectly - but the content froze. This was up to last Tuesday. Each time it was tried I only got "Continue" as the option.
I have been away since then - wrote my post above before I tried today.
So I could now watch up to 18 mins to go - then freeze. Managed to see it all by turning the box off an back on after each of the remaining adverts periods.

So if everyone else saw it ok - then I can now get BT to change the box as it has other issues as well - like it often it won't turn on using the remote.
The cliff catch-up however is the only catch-up to fail.

My internet speed is 66meg.

In watching the program - I still feel (I have always felt) that anyone accused should be protected from the press until all proceedings are completed. If there is no charge / No guilty then it's up to the accused to allow any coverage.
It's good to see Cliff recording again.


Cheers
SJB

Stuart.
Just out of interest I had the same problem watching this via ITV Hub where the program froze after each advert break so I don't think it is a problem your end. I have since watched it again and it was OK. They may have fixed something since. Hope this helps.

I had that problem on Channel 4 catchup for a while. Persisted for a couple of weeks then disappeared as mysteriously as it came. (I was able to cure it by refreshing, which meant it then repeated the entire ad break before continuing with the programme.)

The narrator has got Cliff's date of birth horribly wrong: the 14th of August, 1940!
