Got a friend who was watching via skype(!) so I checked for a VPN that might work. This UK VPN definitely works with the BBC's live stream:

Make sure to select PPTP or it won't work; other wise the instructions are clear.

Once its up and running, you can watch the BBC's live stream from anywhere in the world at this site:

This British commentary is about as good as Alexandra Daddario in episode 2 of True Detective.


Yes, that is high praise.

Loving the fact they've pulled Murray Buchan (who'll be repp'ing GB in pipe) into the commentary booth.

Yeah, but it seems GB is pretty good at the whole Olympic tobogganing thing and we'd be happy for any medals in anything!

Fortunately, you can rewind BBC's iPlayer to replay slope runs.

commentary has been alright, lots of tricks called wrong even by murry, 12s being called as 9s.
