Anyone in the UK watch the Gadget Show? They're doing a show sometime in the future where people recreate the theme song, and one guy is using DIY instruments. Apparently they're going to show my instrument The Drumssette, or reference to the youtube video. I don't know if they're going to play parts of it, or if it's just going to be on the guy's computer screen in the background, but they contacted me about it. Unfortunately, it doesn't air here, and they block their videos to non UK addresses. Does anyone have a DVR? I'd love to see it! It's on Five TV, whatever the feck that means

Hi Mike. Well done! National TV.. They have an on-demand service (Demand Five) , so you may be able to watch/record it yourself. Try five.tv Otherwise, I'm sure someone here will be able to record the show for you.

Thanks! Unfortunately, it blocks non UK viewers (or at least US viewers). Isn't there a work around for that? I've heard of something.

I've got around this kind of thing in the past by using proxy services. You redirect your traffic via a uk-based proxy, amd five thinks you are in the uk.. These things tend to be slow' though. You may be better off getting someone here to pvr it after all..

Hey NJ
can you give any quick tips on how to set up a proxy for the UK. I can't get any BBC feeds

Thanks to my brother in law, I got to see it! I used firefox, redirected to some strange proxy address, and it worked. I got a nice shout out on the show around 6 minutes into it!
