Jonathan on BBC1 Sunday - Advice for Overseas Fans



My last post did mention Karen’s recommendation (via Lin Gee) of Filmon.com and she’s put further information about it on Facebook.  In case you haven’t seen that here it is:

Some additional information though if you are unable to watch due to time difference etc. Go to the Filmon.com site and register. Down the left side you'll see all the channels available. Choose BBC and to the right of the box you'll see a small grey box with TV = and a star above. Click on the grey box and go to Sunday 22 where you will see an option to record. You can only record if you've registered though.

Sue Winspear it says 8.35 PM on Filmon.com but I suppose time is irrelevant as only the non UK residents will be viewing it on Filmon.com It must show the time relevant to the country you live in because we are 4 hours ahead of UK so the 8.35 for me will be the actual time it's on.

Do hope this helps those of you who live outside the UK.

Jonathan’s Next Performance and Live Streaming



I’m very aware many of Jonathan’s fans do a great deal of work promoting his wonderful talent and this blog is just a drop in the ocean.

It’s come to my notice that some of you from overseas may have difficulty seeing or hearing UK television or radio shows.  Ivy Yeo is very good at ensuring her local radio station plays Jonathan’s solos and she never gives up.  A pat on the back for Ivy. If even a few more of us emailed or telephoned our local radio stations as often as possible, we may manage to get ‘the Antoine word’ spread more widely.

Speaking of broadcasting, I picked up a conversation on Facebook, where one American fan was saying how frustrated she was at not being able to view ‘live’ UK television shows.

One fan, who lives in the middle east, suggested they try the live streaming website Filmon.com and says it’s the best system she has found.  Give it a try.  I can’t experiment from here because I’m in the UK.

Remember, Jonathan, along with Charlotte, is singing on BBC1 Songs of Praise this Sunday (22nd December) and the programme starts at 4.35pm (GMT).
