How to watch ‘The Twelve’ with a VPN
A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you’re surfing the web from your home country, rather than the country you’re in. That means you can access the streaming services you normally watch, even when you’re traveling or don’t live in the service’s “home” country to begin with.
We’ve tested plenty of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is NordVPN. It’s fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you’re in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you’d select U.K. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to ITVX or another service and watch the show.
