I've found some films and documentaries on the Box of Broadcasts (BoB) database but I'm not in the UK and it's not letting me access them

It is not possible to access content in BoB from overseas as the ERA licence that the database operates under will not allow it. The service uses geolocation software to block access from outside the UK.
Alternative sources may be available. See our Multimedia subject guide to find out more or contact us at library@st-andrews.ac.uk to ask for advice.
