My tv has a voiceover person....

[Beads]

on occasions when I watch a programme someone will voiceover saying what's going on. For example on Friends now: "Ross looks at a framed photo. Ross is flabbergasted" It tells you what they're actually doing. Has anyone else ever had this and how do you get rid of?? It's only happened a few times. At first I thought it was a joke!

if you have sky, it sounds like you have your "audio description" switched on.
not all programmes have it which is why you dont hear it all the time. you can turn it off by pushing the help button on your sky remote, selecting audio description and changing it to "off". you can also find it in one of the menus, maybe "set up"
if you dont have sky , then i'm not sure what to do, sorry!

It is for visually impaired people so they can follow the plot of the programme.

[Beads]

Thanks jefner, it is only on sky so I'll do that.
Thanks Ethel.
