Apart from Skysports, Sky One and BBC One HD / BBC HD Channels. There are no subtitles on ITV HD / Channel 4 HD, E4 HD, Film 4 HD, or ESPN HD, National Geographic channels as well. Some channels have subtitles on Normal channels but not HD version of Normal channels. I am not sure who is the best person to complain but I have complained to ITV and Channel 4 in the past. Any ideas?
