Hi, Can I watch my recorded programmes when I'm abroad? I know I can't watch live TV but was wondering if the same restriction applies to recordings?

The correct answer is no.
I suspect that as soon as the device you're watching on, sees a 'net connection and identifies on a foreign IP address, it's game over.
Whether particular ways & means around that work, is anyone's guess.

Given you can’t even watch recordings outside your home, I suggest abroad is outside your home.
You can, of course, download some programs to watch offline.

And just for clarity, that's the functionality I was referring to in my reply. I didn't make that clear.

Hey TheCaptain, thank you for reaching out and I am sorry you are having some issues watching TVGO.
Unfortunately what has been said above is true, it comes down to licensing laws.
You could download Netflix / Disney+ and download some content, this would work. Thanks
