Re: Subtitling errors
I suspect it's because there isn't much time to devote to subtitling, even for recorded programmes, Why would they need to devote time to it? Why is it not adequate to have the subtitlers at the filming and editing sessions? Or can the production company not afford to pay them for that many hours? ...
