  The direct link didn't work for me, but it did work fine when I cut and paste the URL into the form on the proxy web site.

Why do UK users need a proxy to see something on the BBC website?

  "We're sorry but this site is not accessible from the UK as it is part of our international service and is not funded by the licence fee. It is run commercially by BBC Worldwide, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the BBC, the profits made from it go back to BBC programme-makers to help fund great new BBC programmes. You can find out more about BBC Worldwide and its digital activities at www.bbcworldwide.com."

    Ah, thanks for sharing their explanation. That stills seems awfully weird to me.

      It's not that weird if you understand the market in the UK. As the BBC is a publicly funded broadcaster in competition with advertising supported private entities it has to be very careful to keep a Chinese firewall between it's commercial arm BBC Worldwide and the stuff that is done with public money otherwise the other broadcasters will jump all over them with the regulator and the fair market bodies.

    Pretty bad to see from the BBC, but at least you don't have to sign in to see it.
