BBC iPlayer not working in UK even when VPN disconnected

Is there a work around to get BBC iPlayer to work with AVG VPN.  It gives a message that 'This content is not available in your location'.  I am UK resident with VPN set to London as location but iPlayer will not work even with the virtual network disconnected.

Hello Simon,

TV streams (Netflix, iBBC, Sky, etc.,) are not fully supported by Secure VPN. If you can't access it even when AVG Secure VPN is turned off, we recommend you to contact your ISP to get further assistance.
