I agree with djmurray, a VPN is definitely the way to go, not only can it allow access to iPlayer, you can also get Hulu and a host of other reasons to use a VPN. check out this article if you're new to VPNs or want to know more about why you should use one

I was using that shield freebie thingy and it just seemed to bog down my system, I got a good deal pon a one year VPN from Laptop Telly ( search: LAPTOPTELLY ) does the trick for BBC & ITV0

So the best and most effective way I've been using is a low cost proxy. Basically if you try the free ones you'll be able to access some sites that your ISP may not let you access but you won't get to watch iPlayer and Netflix. The proxy I've been using lets you set your own country so the internet thinks you are actually sitting in that country and its highly secure. PM me and I'll give you the link to it!0

I would recommend a service called SmartDNS, provided by a company called OverPlay. I've been using them for several years: overplay.net/#a_aid=OVRPLY
SmartDNS is a new way of accessing tv and video streaming websites that are usually geographically blocked to anyone trying to watch from outside the country.
SmartDNS replicates many of the traditional VPN features, but without ANY loss of speed. It permits access to restricted websites in different countries. The best part is that with SmartDNS, you don't even need to dial into a VPN connection. The initial setup is super easy, and then you just browse as normal... but without the limits.
SmartDNS enables virtually every streaming service you can imagine (BBC iPlayer, iTV, Hulu, Pandora, Netflix etc), and the servers are as fast as your internet connection.
It's $4.95 per month, or if you pay annually, it's $49.95, and you can cancel anytime.0
