I have tried 3 different Browsers and each of them is saying the following.

Sorry, CBBC games and videos can only be played if you are in the UK.
You're seeing this page because it looks like you're outside the UK. If you are in the UK, please close your browser and try again. If that still doesn't work there may be a problem with your internet connection.

That is quite peculiar. Have you got your TV licence? Are you using any VPN program that would allow you to watch foreign TV stations without paying their tv licence fees? (I have heard about people doing that to make their computers virtually appear to be in a different country i.e. Poland to watch their local TV instead of the British broadcast)

Ah, it could be because I have my location disguised.  But I thought it was just going to show I am in the London area somewhere.

Will try again.

Nope, wasn't that because it is working now.

Must have been difficult to learn all those words, not only fast, but not very repetitive either.
