Now, you’ve got me there, françois. I'm guessing that arsenal is possibly the best member to answer your question as he is, from what I can gather, able to download films and TV shows via the Internet while living in China. Or maybe some other technically savvy member can answer your question?

I did however find the following 'how to' site, but I suspect it is aimed primarily at Brits on holiday or living abroad and is probably of no use to you:
