Well, Brian, if you're calling them, they're not rectifying the problem, are they? What do they tell you? I'll certainly call on Monday. Thanks for the number. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of brian andrews Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2005 7:56 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: AUDIO DESCRIPTION - OR THE LACK OF IT! Importance: High Hi, This has been happening on and off for the last few months. I always inform the TV company you can call ITV on 0870 600 6766 and press option 4 in the menu. As they do log it and do take notice. Brian. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Carol Pearson Sent: 31 March 2005 19:00 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: AUDIO DESCRIPTION - OR THE LACK OF IT! Hi all, I am interested to learn whether there was any audio description for you, in your area, using whatever equipment you have, for both "Coronation Street" and "The Bill" on ITV on Wednesday evening of this week. We didn't have any and, alas, we have to say that this is the second time we've found it to be lacking in the last two months, with no explanation or apology. I am therefore very interested to learn whether or not you experienced this as well. In addition, we have some views now about the quality (or sometimes lack of it) of audio description given by ITV and BBC. Does anyone know who is now dealing with this at the RNIB, if anyone? If not then we'll have to take it up with each company individually, unless there's a better idea from all of you! I have two final comments. First, we're still very happy with our DIGITV card from NEBULA Electronics which makes our digital and AD experience generally good. Also, we'd very much like to strengthen the view that we'd now like new films to be audio described as a matter of course, if at all possible. Maybe some of you would like to join us in this. Thanks for any suggestions and responses you can give. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq -- No virus found in this incoming message.
