The Firefox VPN not working for access to a region-restricted site.
When navigating to the site https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer with Firefox's built-in VPN turned on and the Location set to the United Kingdom the site still displays the message "Sorry, BBC iPlayer isn’t available in your region.". Why is this, and how can it be fixed?

Hi,
The page specifically says:
If you are using a proxy or VPN, please turn off any of these services and try again.
So unfortunately, the VPN cannot help in this case.
