With almost all on-line iplayers, etc. It is impossible to view from outside UK.
Sometimes you may be able to get a proxi server/ID which will fool the prog into believing you are in UK,
If anyone knows how that can be done on a regular basis, and not just hit and miss, please let us know,
John in Spain !!!!
PS Just watched Click on line , that is an exception to the rule..
John, I know how to do this with fully encrypted and secure service, but I not sure if I am allowed to put the website on this forum.
I watched BBC iPlayer last May in RP via this service. (UK elections -- How sad is that?)
It's not a free service, but also not expensive (about 70 Euros per year)
Perhaps one of the moderators can advise me if I am allowed to provide website??
Thanks Mick for the info on this, I did record the prog and watched late last night.
Eye popping stuff!
I was really surprised at the maternity ward. Four mothers to a bed.
The nurses looked so professional, caring and calm amidst the apparent chaos.![]()
yeah itsan eye opener about the maternity ward, quite unbelievable. i knew about the different class (shifts) at school as my mahal works as i teacher and she has to work different shifts. sometimes goin to school at 5am for the first class. she was shocked when i told her the primary school i went to had 25 students intotal (primary 1 to primary 7) she has around 60 students in her class. cant see many teachers coping with that numbers of students to teach.
might only be available for people in the uk afraid rani , it worked when i try it. it goes to the youtube page and runs.
I cant get the video from mikey73 to work either and I am in the UK
It says “Embedding disabled by request watch on
YouTube
But the link just produces two clicking sounds?

is it .identitycloaker
you can try it for 10 days for less than Ł5.
anyway back to the program, as steve r says did you hear any complaints, i am 1 of 13 kids and in those days there seemed to be lots off big families, we all got by did not have much but watching the program was just like watching us years ago, i know nothing like that but not far off,today i could not do that and i dont think its right bringing kids into a place that you know you cant afford to keep them, yes thats my opinion and each to there own , good luck to them all and god bless them too
I agree, and I suspect the people in the programme also agree. In fact one young mother said she hoped she would not get pregnant again during the 4-6 month wait for her steralisation.
Sad to say the obvious (to those in the west) solutions to this do not follow an easy path in Phils (and many other countries).
[QUOTE=stevewool;251888, good luck to them all and god bless them too[/QUOTE]
totally agree Steve.
John, just google.
The software I use works from anywhere in the world. I have used in in RP, Japan,
SPAIN, France and USA.
the easy answer for anyone to say here , is dont have any more kids , but as we know its not as easy as that,i am just so glad that my emma is here with me
yes we all would like to save the world make our partners family happy too, but hey ho they are, i took emma off there hands
, but its true, thats all that matters

I had the same problem as Mick but then tried again and just managed to watch it.
As an outsider, the answers to many of the problems suffered are so clear and family planning/ contraception is a key player but I do understand the constraints that the catholic church impose. Clearly church reform is needed in this area, putting the welfare of people first rather than trying to selfishly boost the church's coffers ...........
Agree also I just could not imagine living in those dreadful conditions, I don’t think I would ever sleep

I mentioned to my wife that in China its one child per couple but that means girl babies get aborted or allowed to die when born, as only boys are looked upon as insurance for old age.
My wife said in RP its girls who are more appreciated as they are more likely to help feed and support the family whilst males are out gambling, drinking and fornicating !!!
My wife was involved as a health worker in Rizal (15 miles from Manila). She and her colleagues were trying to educate people about health issues and family planning. They used to hand out free condoms in the hope it might help. The problem though is the Church. The priests threaten hell for those who use contraception, so what chance do poorly educated people have ?
The thing I find difficult to understand (I was brought up as a Catholic) is that to practice the rhythm method (better regarded as Russian Roulette) is allowed, but that is birth control, so how does that in reality differ from using a condom? It's not like abortion (which I am against) which takes the life of a child. Contraception, as the name implies, prevents conception.
Mystified.
I've not seen this program, our internet is too slow here at work. But, I have been into the poorest areas of Manila and have seen first hand the way people live. People living alongside the dead in a cemetary, where literally a whole shanty town has been built on stilts above it, with nothing but garbage below, and the same in Smokey Mountain. I met a lady who'd had 12 children, only 4 had survived, and her baby had just died the day before. She seemed to take it in her stride with no emotion. I would love for everyone to see this, to realise how people live.
when i was out there with seeing emma for the first time , yes what you read and see on tv does help a little, we all live the way we want and some have the futune to move on and better themselves others just cant ,but the kindness that is shown there to others is beyong me, we was eating out in china town and we did not finish what we was eating, rather then leave it emma asked to take it out , the once out emma gave it to a very young child,this happened on many occasions, that made me realize just how kind some people are , me i would give a few pesos here and there , but emma says thats wrong better to give food and give it to the children too, just so sad sometimes what we see but to those it is a everyday thing
