If you go to: http://www.daveproxy.co.uk/ you will find a form and a space to type the website address in, eg www.bbc.co.uk/topgear then the video will play. I hope this helps? John

Every now and then someone mentions getting a decent UK proxy. Unfortunately for iPlayer purposes they've got a notice up saying no iPlayer because it was chewing up so much of their bandwidth. Bugger.

Highly recommended PJ
