Hi Frank. The BBC site your link goes to states|

We're sorry but this site is not accessible from the UK as it is part of our international service and is not funded by the licence fee. It is run commercially by BBC Worldwide, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the BBC, the profits made from it go back to BBC programme-makers to help fund great new BBC programmes. You can find out more about BBC Worldwide and its digital activities at www.bbcworldwide.com.

Oh thanks for posting this :)
Every time I read about the Portland vase I think of this vase and wonder what happened to it.
Curiouser and curiouser ...
