English and French. I must add that because I lived abroad most part of my adult life, I rarely watch Portuguese TV shows, but for the news…

Usually when I'm not working, I prefer my leisure viewing in my native English. However, I sometimes watch things in other languages as well. I'd be hard pressed to name a "favourite" show, as I can't think of any that stand out above the rest.

For the same reason I can't watch BBC shows in Italy, most annoying!
I presume I would have to pay for a VPN, considering the small amount of TV I watch it wouldn't be worth the expense

I don't watch TV a lot. Netflix offers more than enough for me. I had seen a particular RAI production years ago (La Piovra). Recently I wanted to see it again, yet I came to see that they blocked streaming for viewers outside the country.

A little off topic Jan 23, 2023

Just found this: http://www.freeintertv.com, where you can view more than 1300 TV channels for free. Is this legit? How would they maintain operations if it is totally free?

How about your country? Jan 23, 2023

You have to pay for a TV license even to watch streaming services in the UK, right? And it costs, annually, about 3 or 4 times what you pay for your VPN. How sick is that?

RAI 1 Jan 23, 2023

My favourite apart from Italian music programmes, must be Meraviglie by Piero Angela on Italian channel RAI 1 about famous places worth visiting and their treasures like Mont St. Michel in France, Florence, Bernini and Borromini, the Pantheon, the art treasures of the Vatican, underground Rome. Like his father, his knowledge and the way he describes the treasures he speaks about make each episode fascinating as he describes aspects and details no one would normally have known about.

My favourite apart from Italian music programmes, must be Meraviglie by Piero Angela on Italian channel RAI 1 about famous places worth visiting and their treasures like Mont St. Michel in France, Florence, Bernini and Borromini, the Pantheon, the art treasures of the Vatican, underground Rome. Like his father, his knowledge and the way he describes the treasures he speaks about make each episode fascinating as he describes aspects and details no one would normally have known about. Meraviglie are every year but they are all different even if he sometimes chooses the same places.Collapse

thanks, I'll try that one
Sites offering free TV pop up now and again and everything goes fine until they start asking for money!
