Aggravates me no-end that does. I skip forward on the Sky Movies planner to see if theres anything decent worth recording later on in the early hours, then when I go to watch it, theres some bloke in the corner of the screen flapping his arms about. It happened the other night when I recorded 12 Angry Men. Surely it gets on deaf peoples tits as well - wouldn't they prefer SUBTITLES ?

Qualified BSL interpreters earn similar money to doctors and lawyers.

Maybe they volunteer for the late late shows. :lol:



I wondered why Ned was taking his first grade exam.

Yeah, but why subtitles in the day and picture blockers late at night??

Generally not, as sign language bears virtually no relation to English - if a deaf person was raised 'speaking' BSL, English is a foreign language to them and requires translation.

I'm partially deaf, and no - it doesn't get on my tits.

I don't look at it either, but I know one day I might need it.
