BBC vids usually display anywhere AFAIK.  This blackout would be an Olympics
broadcasting rights issue.  If your local TV network wants to keep you in
the dark until that night's prime-time replay, then no other images can
legally be delivered to your area by any means.

Here in Australia we're seeing the events as they happen because of a
similar timezone, and Perth is in the same Zone (unless China has daylight
saving in their summer).  The problem with that is that most Aussies are at
work or school :-(
