I've just moved back to Britain from Portugal and cannot access the BBc iPlayer app on my Apple TV. I've changed the country on the Apple TV, and also on the iTunes store but still no success. Does anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks.
Apple TV HD, tvOS 12
In the end it turned out to be very simple, and maybe even obvious, but a lot of online advice doesn't actually mention it. After changing regions on Apple TV and iTunes I had to log out of Apple TV and sign in again as it didn't update automatically. Easy as that.

BBC iPlayer is only available to UK residents. To this end, you are required to have an Apple ID account with a British billing address, to get this app from the UK App Store. Furthermore, to stream anything from the BBC iPlayer app, you need to be using a valid UK IP address. The latter will be checked by the BBC.
Thanks. But I am a UK resident (with a BBC TV license), have a UK IP address, and have changed the Apple ID to a British billing address - and still the iPlayer app doesn't appear on my Apple TV, which is why I'm stumped.
What does it show for search results, if you search for ‘BBC iPlayer’ (or just ‘BBC’ for that matter) in the App Store app?
