Flaine does have a very high proportion of British clients so there will be many bars showing live sports. Le White Pub is one if I recall. Otherwise the British seasonaires tend to go to The Flying Dutchman so worth checking that one too.

Re streaming - don't you need a VPN account as well? Every time I've tried to watch stuff abroad sky or iplayer or whatever says it won't work abroad. I use watchuktvabroad or something - seems fairly reliable.

andy from embsay, FilmOn works fine for me all the time. Simply "fails" to recognise where you are and loads the channels. It streams well as long as you have a a good strong connection to the internet. I've used it in Germany, Austria, France and Switzerland without any problems.

northernsoulboy, no access to catch up I'm afraid - for that you need some kind of proxy server. I use Ex-Pat Shield (also free software) when forced to but once I've caught up I reboot my system to get rid of the annoying banner adverts! Sadly (or is that luckily???) they do not do a version for Apple products, so unless you buy into a proxy, you are boogered for i-Player or whatever it is called.

You know it makes sense.

Thanks Sue. Having checked the timetable, I should actually be able to watch it on iPlayer (assuming iPlayer works in Italy...?)

basically, it doesn't, as Samerberg Sue said. Maybe you should rise above rugby and just enjoy the mountains? But the Italians are keen - ask around locally and probably somebody will be watching

Aren't SIX Nations games on BBC or ITV & therefore can be watched on IPLAYER

1969jma, wot Samerberg Sue said. You can watch them on iPlayer in the UK, but not abroad.

northernsoulboy, download ExPat Shield which is free and fairly stable, then watch the i-Player match you want. That's what I do if I miss any matches. The advertising is a bit of a bittch but it is top banners which you can close once you are watching the programme/match of choice. Then reboot when you've finished, as the banners stay and reappear on every screen even after you have switched the software off. The price you pay for free software I suppose! Not too great a hardship if you really want to watch the matches.

Sue - that's really helpful, thanks very much.

patricksh, La Perdrix Noire often has the rugby on, although the beer prices are a bit steep. I've watched Champions Leage football in the bowling alley in the past so that would be worth a try. Both places are in Foret, the bowling alley is in the basement of the mini shopping centre below the Perdrix Noire.

No idea about the time of the game but la perdrix has a happy hour in the early evening, around 5 to 6pm
