Talking Pictures TV

[techmot]

I know this isn't really about downloading programs more the programs themselves, but last week I was watching episodes of the 1990s UK paranormal series Strange But True that are currently being shown on Talking Pictures TV. I was a big fan of this series back when they were originally broadcast on ITV but never got the see alot of the episodes so it was good to see them again. But one thing I noticed was that the previous weeks episodes included those "captions" giving the name of the person being interviewed or talking (these are often used when their names aren't mentioned by the presenter/narrator), and also where there is a reconstruction. However, last Friday's episode no captions where included, yet the episode originally had them. I noticed on some of the repeat broadcasts that are on youtube from the Sky Unexplained and Paranormal channels that the captions haven't been included as well. Why can't they show the episodes the way they were when first broadcast?

Just an example of what I mean:

You are right - not on topic .

I'd suggest you ask them. In my experience (not with british TV I admit) sometimes you'll even get an answer.
