Owners of some Samsung smart TVs are finding themselves unable to watch BBC iPlayer on their gear after support for scores of models was suddenly dropped.

The Beeb on Friday quietly pulled the plug on iPlayer for 150-odd types of Samsung TVs manufactured between 2012 and 2018, saying only that the sets could no longer meet various unspecified "technical requirements."
