How to watch ITV Player

I'm trying to watch Finding Alice on ITV on catch up. Is there a way to do that? Says I can't access but there isn't an STV App on my Sony TV.

Sony are bad for this. I tend to watch on my PC or cast it from my phone.

I'm not sure if those options are any good for you?

Thank you. Downloaded app and I'm casting from my phone.

I have a Sony and have STV player. Think we may have downloaded it. Have you gone into the App Store in your tv?

I think it depends on the age of your TV, we bought ours and a year later it wouldn't even download Netflix. To be fair we route everything via our BT box mostly and I don't watch STV very often so just go with my phone and casting now.

STV player is the worst ever.

Laggy and buffs all the time

Just pick a random English postcode and get ITV player. I’ve noticed it has much more on it than STV player? Was looking for White House Farm a few months ago (pre it arriving on Netflix) and was available on ITV player but not STV

Agree with Chasingamy. DD told me to put in the postcode for Buckingham Palace (can’t remember but we googled it) and it worked! Weird though!

SW1A 1AA.

Buckingham Palace. For some reason it’s in my brain.

I put in an old postcode from my childhood home in England, it works every time, STV is very amateurish imo.

Thanks for the postcode tip. I want ITV programmes like White House Farm so that's perfect.

Ah - I was going to suggest this as well. STV didn't show an episode of Vera one week and then went on to show the next one the following week. The only way I could get the missing episode free was via ITV player, so I chose a Newcastle postcode, I think.
