Think my IT dept might have something to say about that!!

And surely there is only so many people who can watch it using the BBC website? If a million people log on to watch it surely it will grind to a halt.

Apparently I am not in the UK

I work for an IT department and the policy where I work is to ban streaming video and audio content, it is a bandwidth hog.
