BBC TV's subtitling "risks turning shows into comedy"
"'With BBC TV's instant subtitling service, ... accuracy gives way to speed, with the result that quite serious programmes risk being turned into comedy shows. One of my favourite examples is a recent programme about food supplements, which included 'a meagre tree-fish oil' instead of 'omega 3 fish-oil'."

Damn them! A meagre tree fish oil...that's really funny! I run a blog about the benefits of fish oil, check it out and let me know what you think!
Warm regards,
