Don't want to post the links as I don't want to upset Aunty. But if you run the top link in https://gist.github.com/bpsib/67089b959e4fa898af69fea59ad74bc3?permalink_comment_id=5427798#gistcomment-5427798. If you're not in UK, like me, you have to use a vpn/smartdns to listen. Thanks to johnpenny.

Is there an updated list for the TV channels, as it seems no longer to work, but the radio ones are working. I am not using any VPNs and am in UK

Is there any workers.dev script that works to play BBC streams without VPN? I found one last year, but I was not able to get the code. If anyone has the code that they are willing to share, please let me know.

Hi all, I am looking for some BBC streams in m38u format (rather than mpd) so I can use them on my enigma2 box and record them.

From all the comments above I can see:
https://vs-hls-push-uk.live.fastly.md.bbci.co.uk/x=4/i=urn:bbc:pips:service:bbc_two_hd/pc_hd_abr_v2.m3u8
https://vs-hls-push-uk.live.fastly.md.bbci.co.uk/x=4/i=urn:bbc:pips:service:bbc_one_london/pc_hd_abr_v2.m3u8
https://vs-hls-push-uk.live.fastly.md.bbci.co.uk/x=4/i=urn:bbc:pips:service:bbc_one_london/pc_hd_abr_v2.m3u8

but I would love to be able to find one for BBC Four and Sky News HD and GB News HD if anyone would be so kind?
Also RB1, 2 etc.

ITV etc would be brilliant too but I understand these will not work due to DRM

Thanks in advance.

https://streamer.nexyl.uk/48559ccd-6400-457d-8acc-06b9e24c2ed8.m3u8
Which I've tried and seems to work okay, tho can't guarantee it won't have issues

1080p gb news:
