As part of the BBC’s crusade to get iPlayer on more connected devices. Panasonic will be adding the BBC’s iPlayer IPTV service to models of their latest internet connected Viera Television line up. But dissapointingly, older models of the internet ready Panasonic Viera will not be able to access the BBC iPlayer service.

The beebs catch-up TV and radio service comes to just the twenty four new flat-panel Panasonic 2011 Viera TVs due out in 2011, both plasma and LCD models in sizes ranging from 32-65-inches that will be compliant.

As there is a large amount of set top boxes available and having one of these will give you access to the BBC iPlayer services. You can also use some game consoles like the PS3, and the Wii will give you access to the iPlayer service.

Viera Connect, the newly titled Panasonic cloud based connected TV service will add the BBC iPlayer as part of its service., and Viera Connect is only available on 2011 models, not earlier generation ones. The tv’s come with Twitter apps, Picasa, Skype, and access to YouTube.

Bit of a poor show that Panasonic are not allowing older sets to watch, what is probably the best UK catch up tv services around. But viewers with older models can always plug in a set-top box or games console to get the beebs service on their tv sets.
