Ofcom: Results from the Second Sampling Exercise 5 November 2014 This document is the second of four reports on the quality of live subtitling in British television programmes, based on samples drawn from live-subtitled programming broadcast in April and May 2014 by the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky. In order to address continuing complaints about the quality of live subtitling, Ofcom consulted in May 2013 on proposals to incentivise broadcasters and access service providers to identify and act upon areas for improvement.
