The irony(?) for me is that I'm a UK ex-pat (who has paid the UK license fee in the UK this year) living in Singapore. But my Singaporean ISP "helpfully" provides VPN connections so that I'm a local in foreign countries (so that I can use Pandora, for instance 'in New York'). So... I'm overseas, but I share all the problems of the UK residents, who are, understandably, also miffed.

PS: Having looked at the video (via the wayback machine) - is it the Sleeper that I'm reminded of? I'm getting deja vu with some 70s SciFi spoof...
