For anyone considering buying a new Samsung TV from their 2016 range just be aware that at the time of writing this thread, none of the UK catch-up TV apps are available.
Samsung say: "Samsung is working hard with the application providers to make sure they perform at their very best for our mutual customers. This process takes time but ensures Samsung’s TIZEN Smart TV platform delivers these services in the highest possible quality.
.....I am sorry but we also don't have the time frame as to when it will become available but we are doing our best to resolve it as soon as possible. We apologise for the delay, but are confident once released our customers will appreciate the stringent research and development both Samsung and the service providers have invested in delivering these important UK Catch up services to Samsung customers."
The BBC say: "I’m afraid I can’t give an exact date for when 2016 Samsung TVs will become certified for iPlayer. We do expect them to, but we’re still negotiating with Samsung at the moment. Once these negotiations are completed, iPlayer should be fully available shortly after."
