No Subtitles Available in U channels

On a Sky Q Box, when trying to watch content from U & Drama, via Sky Box Sets or Catch-Up, there are no Subtitles Available.

However, this same content on the U App, or on the U Website does have subtitles available.

Can Sky please made these subtitles available on their system?

Lack of Subtitles on so much content - International Week of Deaf People

For instance - U&Drama - there are loads of great shows on here and none of them have subtitles available via the SKY Q box [box sets or catch-up] . However there are subtitles available on the U website and on the U App for these shows. 

If you need an example, the main show on the U&Drama website at the moment is The Chelsea Detective, if you stream it via their website or the U app it has subtitles, but on Sky Q, none available.

 

Why haven't Sky managed to port over the subtitles for this content?   This is the same for loads of Catch-up content, lots of great shows and movies, but no subtitles, when there are subtitles available from the content-providers for the same content. Sky needs to address this, especially this week.

You could raise it with Sky's Viewer Relations team: viewerr@sky.uk

I agree. I have recently switched from Virgin to Sky only to find that many of the programmes I enjoy are not available to me because of the lack of subtitles. This is very disappointing. I presumed that Sky would be accessible.

Bad idea, you should always make sure
