    There's catch up tv already on there plus plenty of 'other' apps that no-one will discuss on here as they're often illegal/dodgy

    You can still use it to watch free services like the BBC iPlayer without a subscription.

    first of all you need to find an alternative media player to be installed on your firestick , many people recommend a totally legal one called KODI

    after installing that , a search on alternative forums etc etc will give you links to a variety of alternate places to go to , to view many many programmes

    some of the links may not be acceptable to the UK government

    Put Mobdro on it, you'll not look back. I might be over the top but I also use a VPN.

    I agree use Kodi it’s legal it’s what you put on it which may be questionable, alway’s use a VPN, go online for tutorials, Youtube is a good source of info and how too’s.

    HighamKneeDee, have a look below. Unsure how valid the treat is, but forewarned is forearmed, so they say https://torrentfreak.com/mobdro-pirate-streaming-app-slammed-in-malware-report-190425/
