How to watch Trigger Point S4 from anywhere with a VPN

If you're traveling outside the UK, you can watch Trigger Point on ITVX by using a VPN – no matter where you are in the world!

Normally a streaming service will know where you are trying to tune in from and block you if you're not in the right country but a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is an app that hides your location. That means you can access your usual sports and entertainment services even while you're traveling abroad.
