DON'T ANSWER ME THEN!!!! I demand to know the name of the person who devised your subtitling policy! I'm sick of trying to watch programmes that were subbed the last time I watched them on your channel and finding that the next one or more of the series isn't! Doyou think it's funny to treat deaf people this way.

I keep getting email from uktv telling me I have got new posts in reply to my postings about subtitling and they come with a link urging me to "check it out" but when I try to do so I am unable to access these replies as there is no obvious way to access them. Can someone tell me how to do this?
As far as your subtitling goes, you ( uktv ) should urge your lawyers to study the Disabiliy discrimination Act clause 50 as you are in direct contravention of this act by not subtitling ALL of your programmes. Lets see how many replies are generated from this posting.
COME ON ALL YOU SUBTITLE USERS, LETS GIVE THEM SOME GYP TILL WE GET OUR FULL ENTITLEMENT. WRITE OR EMAIL YOUR MP ON THE SUBJECT. IF YOU WERE A WHEELCHAIR USER, YOU COULD SUE PEOPLE FOR NOT PROVIDING RAMPS OR WIDER DOORWAYS BUT BECAUSE OUR DISABILITY IS NOT VISIBLE WE GET IGNORED. IT IS YOUR RIGHT AND THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO GIVE US EQUAL ACCESS TO THEIR SERVICES ie ALL OUTPUT SHOULD BE SUBTITLED ON ALL CHANNELS OTHERWISE THEY WILL ONLY SUBTITLE THE BARE MINIMUM AS REQUIRED BY THIS CORRUPT GOVERNMENT IN THEIR GUIDELINES. IF WE WAIT UNTIL THE GOVT MAKE THEM MOST OF US WILL BE DEAD BY THE TIME THEY GET ROUND TO IT. SO ACT NOW AND GIVE THEM A BLIZZARD OF MAIL TO DEAL WITH, THEY CAN'T IGNORE ALL 9,000,000 OF US WITHOUT DISCRIMINATING.IT IS YOUR RIGHT.

HI Jane@UKTV,you don't seem to understand what I was complaining about re subtitling.
I receive email from uktv telling me there is a new message board post relating to the subject I discussed.With this email there is a link to click which I assume will show me any new posts on THAT SUBJECT.IT DOES NOT. It shows me all the other old posts and no way to access the new posts that have replied to my original post. This is not what I want to see . I want to see the posts relating to subtitling ie replies to my message from other users not uktv opinion.
