BBC will never allow the iPlayer to be fully accessed in the Republic of Ireland - yes, viewers can watch their channels on every Irish platform apart from Saorview, but that is all paid for by carriage deals (Freesat I feel is not a huge provider in Ireland)

BBC are under constant pressure, especially from the right wing media and this current conservative government, so they are holding onto their content on the iPlayer

However in this day and age, I wonder how many in Ireland use a VPN to gain access??
