Sickly, I can't remember where you're based but I'm in the US and can get just about every TV channel in Europe, including all S-Y Sports and B-T etc in glorious HD and all programmes available on catch up for 3 days. The service I use is definitely not available in the UK. It is NOT illegal, nor is it free of charge, but it's very reasonable indeed. However, I'm still reluctant to post the name of it on here cos I don't know you from Adam and it may only be available in the US, I'm not sure.
I'm no whizz kid believe me, but I found it. Good luck.
