The BBC iPlayer page for the 2026 Burghley Horse Trials is currently inaccessible to users located outside the UK. The platform displays a region restriction notice stating that the service is only available within British borders.
Viewers attempting to access the broadcast via proxy or VPN services are advised to disable those tools and reload the page. Assistance is available through the BBC’s iPlayer help and FAQs section for those encountering geo-blocking issues.
Geo-blocking really ruins the experience for expats. Hope they sort this out soon!
I tried using a VPN but it didn’t work. Does anyone know if FEI.tv streams it instead?
Why can’t the BBC offer a smaller archive access for overseas viewers who paid their license fees?
So frustrating! I moved to France three years ago and still miss all the good sporting events.
