And I thought it was free membership to beer of the month club. It was just on the news here, but 10 beers is not enough, they need a bigger hopper.

Wayne, Mike, which player does the link work with? I've got Realplayer for the BBC video streaming, but it doesn't start buffering or put up an error message.

It plays through the mplayer-plugin here, when the 1st screen comes up I selected "windows media" and clicked ok, and it loaded

There may be a problem on the BBC site, all the video streamer links on the news page seem to be off-line, but I can access some other streaming, though even then some items on a page are accessible, some not. It's been like this for quite a while, not sure what the problem actually is.

It's really strange that recently I haven't been able to play any embedded Real clips on the BBC site,
but if I click on 'Open in standalone player' it works OK.
