Today is tvcatchups first birthday

So today they have released an application where you can now watch their streams on the iphone or itouch.

This is what is says on their forum;

TVCatchup is now compatible with the IPhone (or IPod Touch). To watch TVCatchup on your IPhone, simply go to:

http://iphone.tvcatchup.com

There are currently 12 channels available for testing purposes. The streams are optimsed to work on both 3G and WiFi, although it is suggested that you use WiFi.

If anyone has any problems visit their forums, they will be happy to answer your questions [/i]

Thanks!

Just had a little play. Seems to work okay on wifi.
Has BBC1/2/3, ITV1/2, 4, Five, Film4, E4, More4 and 4Music.

You can only watch live TV though so I'm not sure where the "catch-up" element comes in.

iPlayer also works remarkably well on the iPhone (on wifi) so I tend to use that:
