Reliable Live Streaming sites with UK Channels for Expats in Oz?

[ruddy2000]

Hi all,

 

First of all apologies if this is in the wrong part of the forum (suggestions accepted if it should go somewhere else) but to cut a long story short, when I lived in Thailand previously I managed to have a reliable streaming site which streamed some UK channels like, Sky News & Sky Sports News for example in HD. I have paid for a full sky subscription in the UK which my parents currently use back home, but SKY will not allow you to access this remotely overseas myself. Before the suggestion comes in, I have tried a VPN with the sky Go app but the streaming seems to be unreliable and drops out/cuts off constantly and the quality is definitely not HD.

 

So my question is for those of you who might have had experience in this and miss UK TV like myself is, is there any streaming sites out there that are reliable? even if they are subscription based pay for access ones?

 

Thanks for any suggestions in advance!

Foxtel is probably the way to go.

They do have live Sky News from the UK on.

There is a lot of sport although not EPL anymore. But plenty of other European soccer.

I stream HD using this service. Including Sky. Works great - https://vpnarea.com

There are scores of illegal sites to stream sports and films but it is illegal and I would not do it myself of course.
