Don't know about XBOX, but easy from a PC or laptop.
Sign up with a VPN website (I use VPNUK - ), and you will be able to access BBC1 and ITV1 main websites which stream in HD. You can then cast to TV via chrome browser.
Only around £6 for 1 months access and no contract.
I do this from Denmark and it works well.
Hey /u/FrenchBreadFTW. If you can have all the necessary docs for the KYC process, why not? I don't know about odds (french vs. UK bookies) but I would assume you might get some better odds with UK Bookies (even on non-Chinese League bets). So if you can have a proof of address in a UK country, just go for it. I use VPNUK and they are perfect, btw.
As for the bookie, I would say Bet365 (I imagine you like alternative markets) or Betfair (if you are into trading). If you like the transfer market, skybet. If you like to get bonuses, just go for each and every bookie.
Does Pinnacle allow for french users? That would be the best option.
I used VPNUK (). They offered a free trial and there were many servers available. I remember I had to try a few to get it working because at first I was geting a UAE ip even though the site said it was a UK server. If after the reboot you see BBC and other UK catch up services on the Sony Shelf, it should be working.
