Zones and Table shipping rates

Hi all, I'm running a Zen Cart 1.5.0 site and ship out to various countries.

Currently, I've just been using zones with my home country, England, set as a "skip" country. I then have 3 zones, the Americas, Europe, and the rest...
This has been fab as I have "free delivery" to the UK, but just recently I've been asked if I can upgrade the domestic shipping to a quicker (Royal Mail 1st Class) service rather than the standard 2nd class.

As a result I installed and added a Table shipping option, to cover the difference between the two rates. This is great for UK orders, but as soon an international order comes in, the "upgraded 1st Class RM" service is selected, which is obviously considerably less than a standard international rate.

Is there a way to offer the table options only to the customers in the UK?
I've had a look at the modules and while I'm ok with procedural PHP scripting the OOP is just a tad too much for me follow. Sorry.

..or am I missing something basic?
Can anyone help, please?

Cheers

Re: Zones and Table shipping rates

Add a filter to each of the applicable shipping modules to become available only if they meet the regional filter requirements.
