Hi,

I've just discovered that the BBC has a website where you can read what kinds of complaints they are receiving, and what the Beeb are doing about them.

Just visit here! :clap:

Some fun things to read, especially some of the BBC's crass responses! :rotfl:

Some of these complaints are pathetic, people should just shoot themselves if they are that sad. :eek:
People have a choice not to watch programs.

Interesting read tho thanks for the link. :smashin:

Complaint

Using subtitles for Scottish characters in the film Sweet Sixteen was offensive
People were talking about this the next day after the movie aired. I couldn't believe they were complaing. Strong Scottish accents might be hard to understand for people not used to them - what is offensive about this fact?!

Ditto. However it does seem that they only go on "foriegn" people; like Indian or Chinese people, when often i can understand them fine compared to Scots or Irish types.

So this scottish person must have had a very strong accent.
 
Strong liverpool or cockney accents might also be hard to understand but i bet they wouldn't have subtitles for them.

I didnt see subtitles on Mary Poppins.

Since the Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand 'Sachsgate' controversy There's a few sites debating this and other BBC complaints. If the BEEB wont display the many and varied complaints, others are…

The day after sachsgate was aired - it only got 2 complaints - It was the media that blew the whole thing out of proportion (as usual)
