British Expatriate Network

Hi, does anyone of anyway that I can watch Grand Prix and UK news programmes, e.g. BBC News 24, ITV News, Sky News, etc?

I know that Fox Sports World shows the Premier League and Champions League, so football is sorted for me.

But I find both the network and local news channels in US very insular (CNN, Fox, MSNBC, etc.) and I miss the wider coverage and better analysis/presentation style of British news programmes.

I'm also a big fan of F1 Grand Prix but I can't seem to find it on any of the cable channels. Is it shown on Direct TV or the Dish Network?

I've watched BBC America and all I ever saw (regardless of when I tuned in) were Graham Norton, Absolutely Fabulous, Changing Rooms and Ground Force!

Help!!!!

BBC news 24 bulletins are on BBC america.

Grandprix is on Speed channel, which is on cable and satellite, depending on who your cable provider is and what channel package you're signed up for.

I have never seen champions league on FSW, its usually on ESPN, if at all, but is always on when I'm at work in any case, so I listen to it on the internet.

Apart from that, you're stuck with the usual **** like the rest of us.

PBS often has decent british stuff on (see the post on Manor House), and often networks like A&E show things like Morse, or one-off Dramas, such as Longitude, Shackleton etc.

To be fair, BBC America did bring The Office over which was totally inspired, along with Coupling which was superb.
