in America, someone was fined millions of dollars for illegally downloading music for personal use. I mean, yes it's illegal (to my knowledge the same rules would apply in the UK) but the odds of being caught are extremely slim because they usually don't even care about you. They want the big fish and streaming is better than downloading, but it's still using an illegal service to steal copyrighted material for personal consumption. Thousands of people watch shows/movies illegally, though, so I wouldn't be too worried about anything.  

I'm truly sorry you live in the UK  

It's legal to watch movies/tv shows from any browser in the uk. However, from what I know, it's illegal to download apps that allows you to stream tv shows. If you get caught, they'll charge you for breaking the law. I'm not so sure if what you're doing is illegal but, from what I know download free apps to stream tv shows is illegal.

pretty sure the abc website & app has a free on demand that will let you watch all the shows a week later.

But I agree, the Joker has made Gotham an amazing show.

They don't give any warnings, if this app was illegal, you'll be charged straight away. The value is more than £400

Nope. Unless you literally turn yourself in or are doing this on a mass scale then they won't fine you. I've never heard of a single person getting fined for streaming/torrenting.

Network providers who deal with all this already realise so many people do it, they give i think between 2-6 warnings before taking action, even then they dont fine you. They will slow down your internet, or block it completely.
