Watch ‘Big Brother’ U.K. 2025 from abroad
If you’re outside the U.K. during the premiere, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) can help you securely access your usual U.K. apps. In our streaming tests, providers like NordVPN stand out for speed and reliability.
1. Install a VPN app on your device. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favourite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re in the U.S. and want to view your usual U.K. service, you’d select U.K. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to ITVX and watch “Big Brother” U.K. 2025 from anywhere in the world.
Note: Use VPNs responsibly and follow local laws and service terms.
