What can I not watch live on All4?
Occasionally, Channel 4 can’t broadcast its content live through All4.
"Unfortunately we don’t have the rights to show all our programmes on Watch Live," Channel 4’s website states.
"When this happens, it’s most likely because we’re broadcasting a film or sporting event for which we don’t have the online rights."
This is a common occurrence across other online broadcasters including BBC iPlayer, which sometimes prevents a live broadcast of a programme online due to legal reasons.
