right, dont get me wrong, im not against people with disabilities at all.
but why late night does most of the channels now hve to have the arm waving disco dancing person for the deaf. i mean the music chanels??????? wtf.
surely in this great age of technology that we have, the dodgy dancer could be incorperated into some red button job so the rest of us wouldnt have to see it if we didnt want to, and those who need it could make it appear.
far too many times now i get annoyed with it as im trying to watch summit an all the time my attention is drawn to the loony in the bottom right hand corner.

Waving man should indeed be optional. What's wrong with good ol' subtiltles these days anyway?

what got me was the dance tune that had one sentence repeated over and over again, with sign language. i was stoned as hell and started copying the moves, then fell over for laughing so hard.
