You can still listen to World Service at night on any NPR station.

Except that the person who leaked the show worked for the CBC in Canada, not the BBC.

Anyway, as for watching overseas, dozens of TV channels from around the world have picked up the series - except no American channels have decided to do so. If you can't get those channels, maybe you should talk to your local cable or satellite provider instead of complaining to the BBC.

While your point of us having to pay a licence fee is valid, the BBC has to meet certain targets to help convince the government that it deserves to have its royal charter renewed.

Anyone who can get a CBC channel (such as us in Seattle who have cable) can watch it on that.

But as the OP said, you can get it on regular fm radio AND online, so why do you need a shortwave signal?
