    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?
