It use to be 888 on the remote, not sure now

Just found this


How to get subtitles on analogue television
To get subtitles on analogue television, you need a 'teletext' television. However, subtitles are not automatically displayed. To display them, you have to press the teletext function button on your remote control and key in the numbers 8-8-8. Some remote controls have a direct subtitle button.

There is usually a button on the remote for subtitles...but not all programmes are subtitled.

Many thanks, will give it a try. Totally deaf at the moment due to this infection. Very annoying. cheers Penny
