Sounds like this will only be available in the UK and you'll need a TV license. So not a great solution for people who are overseas, unless they provide it on a subscription basis.

Yeah. Not exactly free when you'll have to pay £13 a month for the privilege of owning the TV to watch it on.

I seem to recall Nadine Dorries proposing an end to the TV license, which apparently would come about in 2027 if it happens. But with a complete roster change in the tory government since then and a likely loss in the next election, we'll have to wait and see what Labour decide to do about that.

Just to be clear - Nadine Dorries was and remains complete fuckwit
