The BBC is notorious on blocking VPNs how they do it is beyond me.

So I googled part of the above to search - https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=BBC+is+notorious+on+blocking+VPNs+how+they+do+it

Upon noticing that many different devices are using the same IP address to connect, BBC iPlayer suspects VPN or proxy usage and blocks access. It also checks if the IP address is associated with VPNs, and if it is, the platform blocks it as well.

So this may be the problem.

If you’re having trouble accessing ITVX and BBC iPlayer with Avast VPN while overseas, it’s likely that these platforms have implemented stricter measures to detect and block VPN usage. Here are a few suggestions to help you regain access:

  1. Switch VPN Providers: Consider trying a different VPN service known for bypassing geo-restrictions, such as ExpressVPN, NordVPN, or Surfshark. These providers often have dedicated servers for streaming that are more effective.
  2. Change Server Locations: If you still want to use Avast VPN, try connecting to different UK server locations. Sometimes, certain servers may be blocked, while others might still work.
  3. Use Smart DNS: A Smart DNS service can help you access region-locked content without the potential slowdowns of a VPN. Look for a reputable Smart DNS provider that supports ITVX and BBC iPlayer.
  4. Clear Cache and Cookies: Sometimes, cached data can cause issues with access. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies or try using a different browser or incognito mode.
  5. Contact VPN Support: Reach out to Avast’s customer support for assistance. They may have specific recommendations or updates on which servers work best for streaming UK content.
  6. Consider Browser Extensions: Some browser extensions can help bypass geo-restrictions. Look for those that are reputable and specifically designed for streaming.
