    Have a feeling it’d be blocked but not certain about it to be honest.

    They should put a globe icon on the programmes on the RTE Player which can be streamed for free worldwide (and not just in Ireland). There are some which can be watched far away but you can't tell until you click on them from outside Ireland.

    I don't see any easy way to tell what can or can't, and there have been shows which I have wanted to recommend to people living abroad but you can never tell if they can stream it or not.
