How to Watch BBC iPlayer from Hong Kong
Access the Best British VPN
Simply use NordVPN
It’s still hard to believe that British expats cannot access the BBC iPlayer service when they're abroad, even if they've paid for their TV licence for years. Debate amongst yourselves if you think that the BBC iPlayer service should be available when overseas or not, but it’s unlikely that the broadcaster is going to change policy anytime soon.
So, if you love to watch British television like we do, then you should check out our Chrome Extension Beebs. It’s clever and practical in equal measure. Beebs will sit in your browser and will come into action when you have the desire to flick over to something.
Steps to Stream BBC TV in Hong Kong:
It's as simple as that!
The Best of BBC Telly
Unlike ITV who keep rotating their classic series in and out of their collection, the BBC keeps most of their classic programmes in their collection at all times (though we would like to see The Young Ones return to iPlayer).
While you're on BBC iPlayer, don't forget to check out the quality programming found on BBC One. From the big blockbusters to hidden gems, there's always something worth streaming on BBC1. Here's what we recommend you keep an eye out for:
- Doctor Who
- Peaky Blinders
- Line of Duty
- Vigil
- The Serpent
BBC News Live Stream
No longer will Hong Kong residents miss out on any breaking news or current affairs as broadcast by the BBC. With Beebs, subscribers have the choice to live stream the evening news programmes of BBC News at Six or BBC News at Ten.
There's also the option to stream the BBC One programme BBC News Breakfast, which offers morning viewers with all the latest info regarding the news, sport, weather and business trends every day of the year.
For those short on time and just want the key headlines, there's the quick formatted broadcast of BBC Weekend News which airs in the morning, lunch time and evening slots.
Live Sport on the BBC
Millions of viewers across the UK have tuned into the BBC to enjoy a staked summer of sport. With sporting action from the Olympics, Wimbledon and the EURO Championship helped, the BBC iPlayer service is always in demand.
The recent summer was certainly one of the most memorable for sports events. Plus, there's plenty more to look forward to on the horizon to be broadcast on the BBC.
Final Words
Finally! After so many attempts with VPNs and glitchy streams, we've unlocked full access to the BBC iPlayer service. It's available to anyone from anywhere in just a couple of clicks.
