    watch shows with subtitles as it helps with understanding some British accents

    If you’ve seen subtitles lately, they used to be pretty bad but now they’re horrible. The mess up on what’s being said a LOT.

    Also they spell like a primary drop-out: till, your/you’re, etc.

      You clearly don’t remember the days of live close captions. Hoo-boy, it’s like you could pinpoint the moments the transcriber lost their focus.
