IOS 9 Safari Content Blocking Missing - UK

I've just updated from the GM to the OTA update released today, and I (still) don't have the content blocking setting in Safari settings.
I also don't have the News app, which seems to be a US only thing at the moment.
Is content blocking US only? Does anyone else in the UK have the option?

Thanks! I knew I'd have to install an app to actually perform the blocking, but I was expecting to find the option in Safari settings anyway, just with an empty list or a link to the app store list of blockers. Turns out you have to download a content blocker and then the setting appears.
It'll be good when Apple gets round to creating a category for content blockers.

Crystal - free for a very limited time. Get it while it's hot.
