Why are Subtitles and Audio Description only available on some channels/programmes?

Subtitles and audio description may not be available on every programme or channel. This is because their availability is determined by individual broadcasters, who decide which programmes include these accessibility features.

To check if a programme offers subtitles or audio description, look for accessibility icons or labels in your TV guide or programme information, such as:

  • "AD" for Audio Description
  • "S" for Subtitles
