Sky News UK today

[Excel]

Anybody having problems with Sky News UK today ? It comes up as video downloader not available in your country.

Getting the same with both Sky News App and youtube live channel.

[GoRover]

Yes, same with me. Big loss as I watch it every day.

[Eff1n2ret]

Ah well, at least I know it's not just me.

Sky News UK is working fine on PulseTV.

[Farma]

It disappeared from my firestick youtube too.

 

Tried vpn logged into Australia but no skynews UK. Vpn logged into the UK works.

If on windows, just install a free vpn extension and Sky News live can be watched on You Tube.

 

Probably the same with a free or paid vpn on android.

I've just emailed Sky News asking them why it is no longer possible to view their channel on You Tube from Thailand. Whether I'll get a sensible reply - let alone any reply at all - remains to be seen.

 

I've generally found them to be a useful source of info on current news headlines back in Blighty - although I do consider their presentation to be rather disjointed on account of frequent and lengthy breaks.

Same problem with Sky, been watching GB News instead and Aljazeera.

Youtube channel works using NordVPN. That's all I can contribute.

Did you get a reply? Their website has also blocked live news access from here in Thailand.

My initial email (to a general enquiries email address I found with the assistance of Google) eventually bounced after several unsuccessful attempts to deliver it. I sent a further email to Michael Jones (who is the Head of International Sales and Partnerships at Sky according to Google) on 13 March and am still awaiting a reply.

Seems to be back working now? How long for, who knows?
