No Subtitles on U & Drama

JFREE — Sat, 03 May 2025 20:01:56 GMT

One of my household is Deaf and needs subtitles. Holby seems only to be streamed on U & Drama which has no subtitles. How can subtitles be turned on in U & Drama? I need very full and careful step by step instructions please.

Why is Holby not on ITVX which does have subtitles?

You need to contact U & Drama and ask them why they are not providing subtitles @JFREE and as already mentioned, Holby is a BBC programme and not an ITVX programme

It is currently only available on U Drama.

The On demand that plays out on Sky has Series 19 to 23 does not have subtitles. The U app has series 19-23 without subtitles.

You can get subtitles if you watch the series as a live broadcast

Series 23, from episode 10 is playing as a live broadcast on Sky each weekday morning with subtitles on U Drama.

Notice, it mentions the series only has 14 days left for showing on U.

No mention of where it will play out next, maybe back to BBC iPlayer.
