Yes, Acorn TV can work with a VPN, but it's not guaranteed on every server or provider. The key is choosing a quality VPN like Windscribe. Acorn TV, like most streaming platforms, uses geo-blocking and may block IP ranges that look like VPN traffic, which is why using a quality VPN with servers in supported countries and regularly refreshed IPs usually gives you a better chance of streaming.
