Yes. Using the Internet Channel, browse to the iPlayer website (www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer). Unfortunately the Wii is only able to stream content, meaning the quality of the image can look distorted on larger televisions. Currently Nintendo have expressed no plans to release a Hard Drive for the Wii, which means it is doubtful that higher quality video downloads will ever be available on it. BBC iPlayer is also only available in the UK due to licensing restrictions.
