Hi Val,It just gets worse I'm afraid! I have been reliably informed this afternoon, from the same source that warned me about this all those months ago, that this will be the case! The ITV channels and Channel 4 will also be gone by Tuesday morning!!!
For BBC radio (if fact any radio) you can download www.tunein.com/radio or alternativelywww.radioplayer.com. This is available for PC, laptop, i-player or android. I know we listen to this when we are in France so can vouch that it is receivable loud and clear. As it is internet based, there shouldn't be any problems as it doesn't depend on satellite.
If you are lucky enough to still have a TV aerial in the UK you can use a slingbox - it gets plugged in to your aerial in the UK and you can log in to it and change channels etc. anywhere using your laptop. Having investigated at Maplins, they tell me that a slingbox is about £150 - £300, depending on model and definition.
But maybe someone local will also have an answer. Hope so for all concerned!
