Thanks Darren
I luckily listened to the non-audio described 24 on Sunday, however it's
obviously not so good.
I'd better scour the schedules to find out the new times.

This was down to a faulty machine at Sky. Its been fixed now so everything
should be OK for this coming Sunday.
However, if like me you where hoping to catch up with the next episode
tonight on sky Mix, guess what, its not on! Sky have changed the schedule, so
tough for those who expected what happens one week to happen again the next!

Subject: [access-uk] Audio Description and Sky
Hi
I have Sky andhave the Narrative turned on for audio description. It seems
to work most of the time when I expect it to, but I've noticed for the past 2
weeks when watching the Sunday night episode of 24 on Sky 1 the sound goes up
and down when audio description is happening but there is no voice. I have
generally to watch it on Sky Mix on the Thursday to get the full audio
description. My questions are:
1. Is anyone else getting the same?
2. Can one channel have faulty audio description when the rest don't?
3. Has anyone any solutions?
