I’ve been using a VPN from the US and another from the UK (though I can’t remember the name) to watch BBC and ITV shows, but neither works anymore. I can’t play anything on those platforms. Is there a workaround for this? Any advice would be appreciated!
BBC iPlayer is only available in the UK. If you’re trying to access it from outside the UK, you’ll need to use a VPN or proxy service to hide your IP address and make it look like you’re in the UK. 
Here are some ideas to try:
Switch VPN Servers: VPNs usually have lots of servers in different spots. Try connecting to a different one to see if it works better.
Clear Your Browser Cache and Cookies: Sometimes old data can mess with your VPN. Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies to see if that fixes the issue.
