Steve P: One of the most common errors people make is to assume that everyone else does what you do.
Thus the popular phrase: "assume" = make an ASS out out yoU and ME.

Steve P: On analogue the subtitles are carried by the teletext transmission system on page 088 (which is access as 888). The subtitles are carried as text.
On DVB-T the subtitles are actually a bit-mapped overlay, and are carried as a graphic, rather than text.
They are access via the "subtitles" button on the remote, or via the set/box's menu.
All DVB-T boxes can display subtitles, they are not dependant on the set/box having MHEG-5 support.
On DVB-S satellite the subtitles are carried as text and are accessed via the SETTINGS button menus. Once enabled they are provided as an on-screen overlay, but the Sky box also generates a page 088 with the subtitles too.
