Paulette Hi Paulette, this was reported as a problem earlier in the thread and seems to be a Safari issue for some. If you try Firefox or Chrome I believe this works. I am outside the UK so it's not just about being outside the UK but then the US does tend to go it alone in many respects so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulette I'll risk a recommendation here. I've used FF since about 2005 and I've never been back to IE. Copying over all your bookmarks is dead easy- and you can still run other browsers as well. I still use Chrome as it's a but smoother on maps on my machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cecile Marion Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I’m wondering if you have some sort of block on your computer. Can you access other BBC info? https://www.bbc.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why you can't legitimately watch BBC shows outside the UK. bbc.com is separate and funded by advertising and the BBC's trading companies so it's available everywhere, but those particular images are hosted on bbc.co.uk and so blocked. It may be a mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a mistake. This is what I suspect also, and combined with Safari paranoid settings it gets blocked for security reasons. I sometimes have trouble accessing official Spanish government sites due to security blocks by Safari and find using Firefox works in 99.999% of these cases.
