    ..or is it just me?
    I can access bbc.co.uk or bbc.com main page but apart from cached pages I get a text list appearing down the LH side when trying to open specific sports and news pages... e.g. F1 times out. Been like it for nearly 24 hours now. I have now cleared internet cache on both Chrome and Edge and cleaned the Registry but still experiencing the same issue.
    The internal links on the Website seem broken (URLs?) and I cannot find any reports on the web stating the site has problems.I have the same problem on both laptops (one using Win 10 and one using Win 11)

    The news pages are working fine. The sport jumps to the app on my phone but that is fine too.

    What happens if you use a VPN. Especially a UK one. Does that help. It’s all working fine for me on the ipad

    Been out all day... arrived home and it is now working fine with no intervention from me. At the time my troubleshooting reported no issues atmy end.
    I use 'Strong DNS' rather than VPN but even with it disabled (at which point I connected to bbc.com) rather than bbc.co.uk it was still doing the same.

    OT Disappointing result today especially with Reading getting 3 points. A miracle of epic proportion needed to stay up now.o_O
