Hi! Can anyone recommend IPTV service provider for UK channels? Preferably in UK, to be specialised on domestic channels.

It says Due to rights agreements, you need to be in the UK to stream and download programmes or watch BBC TV channels on BBC iPlayer. As far as I know, it's about licence fee (£154.5), which is required by Communications Act 2003. Then why can't I pay it outside UK? VPN may resolve this problem, but it makes streaming slower, requires extra costs etc.

Still IPTV is preferable, to watch it directly on Android TV (Xiaomi Mi Box S).
Setup vpn on router, assuming you know how. Ideally two subnet, one regular one through vpn. But if that is not possible you just setup vpn on router and turn on and off as needed.

I was thinking about it and seems too inconvenient. IMHO the best option for me is semi-legal IPTV service provider, based in UK and recommended by someone who subscribed for it.
