I used something called Patriot Shield or something like that. Darn, I can't remember. Let me check around and I'll be back with the name.

Oooh. I didn't know you could do this. There's something I want to stream from BBC3. I'm going to go see if this works.

expat shield?

I have used that in the past, but it hasn't seem to do the trick for me lately.
This is on youtube, but not sure if it works?

I was told that http://www.hidemyass.com is good and it lets you pick what server, so I could pick a server in the UK. It does cost though, but not a ton. I read their privacy terms, etc. and it seems above board and not hinky. You can receive mail but not send it so that lets out the weirdos.

I checked the link from Flight's post and it works! I really want to see Jung's test. Hope he wins the Grand Slam.

Yes, the youtube link works! And the commentary is awesome, for the dressage it's been with Carl Hester and Pammy Hutton. I've loved how they don't sugar coat anything, but then they stop being too mean or picky. Carl gives some good little training tips in amongst it too.

I've been watching replays on the badminton website, it seems to have live streaming too, but that is middle of the night for me....

Like Flight says, the dressage commentary has been interesting, and they put the scores for each movement up as the test progresses.
