Are there any decent UK-centric torrent sites? For both films and TV
I get most of my stuff from 1337x but fuck me, it's just all Hallmark TV films and wrestling series now!
Edit - sorry I'm not actually living in the UK; I fell asleep and missed the answers lol Thanks everyone, I'll do a bit more investigation into your suggestions
Private trackers will probably be your best bet imo if you want to stick with torrents, any popular genarl private tracker will probably be enough. If they dont have it already you can request it and someone will probably have it uploaded in a few days (unless its something really obscure). If you can seed long term and maintain a good ratio then getting into more specilized tracker wont be a issue. If you want I can check if I still have an invite for Torrentleech, they might have what you are looking for.
7Thanks for the suggestion!
Yeah I did wonder about that. The only private one I'm a member of is MAM which was fairly easy to get in to, but wouldn't have a clue how to sign up for others
1Its usually through a part of the forums they have, you might need to reach specific requirements to see them. I got into most trackers im on through open signups. Others allow you to do an interview and if you pass that you get invited.
If you cant access the invite forums then making requests is your best bet, they are usually filled quickly and keeps you from having to watch your ratio on multiple sites.
If also just checked and have a few TL invites. If you want one shoot me a dm

Maybe private trackers? I'm not a member at these but TVCUK
and TheEmpiredo tend to get mentioned as trackers with that type of content.EDIT: TheEmpire apparently does not include UK in their torrents per the other comment.
6Thanks, I'll look up TVCUK!

Any chance of joining a private tracker, or getting started with usenet/newsgroups?
5TheEmpire has open signups right now.
2Only upload TV and Radio shows that are PRODUCED IN A COMMONWEALTH COUNTRY or IRELAND. The UK is not included!
Also requires you choose a binary gender on account creation, demands your home ip address, requires you have 0.8+ ratio after downloading 35GB (which sounds impossible due to the limited user pool as a home seeder that doesn't upload new torrents) or pay. Private trackers are creepy
Edit: it seems most popular shows don't count towards download but do count towards uploads and that's how they expect you to maintain ratio

I've been torrenting for 20+ years and I've heard Usenet mentioned a lot but have never needed to sign up. Do you know if there's a newsgroup that's specifically UK based?
