Hmmmm... I really hope it works out, but I've had this thought myself...
It's only called "BBC HD" (not 1). But it seems to have more or less the same programs as the BBC 1. Which we cannot get in Norway on cable...
I'll at least give it a try and subscribe to it, and see it F1 is shown... worst case Ich muss wieder F1 mit die Deutschen and RTL sehen
Jawohl...
