Best way to get British TV? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

*NOTE: I am NOT asking for an invite. I'm very happy to go through the normal channels (IRC, Discord, application, etc).

I think TV Chaos is probably the best current tracker for British TV? I saw that they haven't had open signups for a number of years. Tried joining their chat and didn't get any replies.

Basically looking to get recent seasons of British reality TV (TOWIE, Baby Steps, Love Island, etc) and having a hard time. I'm currently on IPT and TorrentLeech and it's slim pickings. The public trackers don't seem much better (1337z, EXTV, TorrentGalaxy). Any help would be appreciated!

There is some British stuff on Usenet (e.g. nzbGeek) but yeah in general I have concluded that British TV doesn't have broad appeal and so it is hard to find even if willing to purchase.

You could also try using a VPN with the BBC iPlayer app. I've done this before.

There is also the acorn TV app which is a paid streaming service, $8 a month, and probably the best option if you're really into regularly watching British TV as there isn't really a great alternative option.
