I'm sure it has been covered before, so apologies, but I don't know the jargon to search on.

I'm thinking of going to France, it would be good to use my iPad to watch some UK TV (motor racing). Is it possible to hide my location from Sky so that I can watch TV.?
Some use will be on wifi, other using a PAYG french SIM.

I guess I could search on foreign websites (IIRC Iraqi TV used to retransmit UK sport) but the quality was poor.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks to all for your advice and comments - very comprehensive & most useful . Now I need to make sure I buy a decent data PAYG SIM to ensure I don't miss out on half an F1 race! Either that or park myself outside a Maccie D & use their wifi gratis.

To clarify - I am a Sky subscriber in the UK.

Update. Avast Secure Line does not appear to help with access to Sky TV or National Lottery account when using a French Orange SIM or wifi in various locations. Neither seem to agree with VPNs.
