Thank you so much for the info, it worked. As I said in my original message
there is a bug with the Greek so it's not one hundred per cent but this is a
good work around. I'm just so glad that it's working.

You need to select english again from the options in the voice over menu.
I as a user of both spanish and english did that ones and since now greek is
your default english was removed and you need to add it back on as an
alternative.

flick it tells me in greek preselected language lgr, if I flick the other
way it tells me greek, it won't use the English voice, and I'm asking if
anyone knows how to set this up.
