I listen to UK BBC Radio 5 live every day, via the internet. Unfortunately they block out most sports commentaries, especially football and rugby. Is there any radio station or website that streams live commentaries? (I don't always want to sit glued to the TV.)

Same problem, you can't even get the world service sport on the internet on Saturday's any more.

I did have a work around, I found a proxy based in the UK, using proxy4free, and put it into internet explorer. Then Radio 5 thought I was in the UK and it all worked well.

Went to the UK and on my return all had gone pear shaped, no radio 5.

Incidentally Radio 5, the UK version is

Whilst the international, non-streaming sport is

You can put these links into Internet Explorer and it should open up real player, but the UK version sticks at connecting..............

As and extra my wife much prefers the football on the radio to the TV, she says the pictures are better.
