All 4 is one of the UK’s leading on-demand TV streaming services, a platform that hosts most of the TV shows and movies broadcast on channels such as Channel 4, E4, More4, Film4 and 4Music.
Like most on-demand content services, All 4 is only available when you are within UK borders due to broadcast licensing issues.
This can be a problem if you don’t live in the UK but don’t want to miss out on some of the Channel 4 content.
Fortunately, there are ways around this, so here’s how to watch All 4 from outside the UK.
Watch all 4 with a VPN
The easiest way to access All 4 from abroad is to use a VPN (or Virtual Private Network), which allows you to browse the internet while appearing to be in a different country than who you really are.
There are plenty of VPNs out there, though our top recommendation is NordVPN for its reliability, speed, and affordability.

Once you’ve chosen a VPN service, simply install it on your device – most work on PC, Mac, iOS, Android, etc. Then follow the steps below:
1. Connect to a UK server on your chosen VPN.
2. Access the All 4 website or app.
3. Create an account (it’s free, but requires an email address).
4. Find the show you want to watch.
Remember that to watch All 4 you will need to disable all ad blockers (including optional ad blockers on your VPN).
If you still can’t connect, try another server in the UK – content providers try to block VPN traffic, so you may need to try several different connections to find one that works.
Also, using these solutions to watch is against All 4’s terms and conditions, so keep that in mind. It’s not illegal for you to watch All 4 from abroad, but Channel 4 doesn’t like it, and there’s a small chance they’ll block your account.
