Aug 30, 2017 · S4C provides English commentary for selected matches via the red button. This Sunday for instance, the listings for Rugby at 12:50 and Football at 14:35 both state "English sound-track available via the red button on Sky, Freeview or Virgin Media". There doesn't appear to be a way to watch with English commentary via iPlayer however.
Apr 6, 2021 · 06/04/21 - 19:20 #3. There used to be a red button option on S4C via Sky but i'm not sure if there still is. Another option was to change the language from English to Welsh in the settings menu. Selecting Welsh would oddly provide English commentary. davelovesleeds 24,959.
Jan 22, 2018 · Chris, in the Wales edition, S4C is shown in a thin column (about 3cm wide) to the right of the BBC4 column. The thin column also has 'BBC1 England', 'BBC2 England' and 'ITV England' listings above the S4C listings. S4C listings are also carried in the South/West/South West edition and the Yorks/NW/NE edition of RT.
Jul 15, 2008 · 15/07/08 - 14:39 #1. S4C is to provide English language commentary on selected sporting fixtures to supplement its main Welsh language broadcasts where rights allow, the channel announced today (15 July). The new service will be available via the red button on S4C Digidol on Sky, Freeview, Freesat and Virgin TV in Wales, and outside Wales on ...
Jan 26, 2013 · S4C needs state support as the number of viewers is too low to generate sufficient advertising revenue. (BBC Wales are now going to take over the running of S4C). As only about 18% of the population of Wales are able to speak Welsh, it surely makes sense to provide an English language soundtrack for sporting events that are not shown on the main English language channels.
Oct 15, 2011 · S4C HD (Clirlun) is only available to anyone who has a Freeview HD box or TV and points their aerial to a Welsh Transmitter like Wenvoe or the ones in Swansea, etc, etc, so people in the Granada and Border regions might be lucky in this respect. It is also available to Welsh viewers in Wales only via Virgin. Virgin cable in Wales is only ...
Oct 13, 2012 · Unfortunately, S4C Clirlun having miniscule viewing figures didn't help matters either and the important thing for the time being is that S4C itself survives the harsh Tory cuts. As for RoryJMcEwan's original problem, I'd suggest doing full channel rescans at different times of the day (preferably in good weather) to try to pick up S4C again.
Mar 6, 2023 · The birth of S4C. During this evenings The One Show, there was an interesting feature about the birth of S4C. I had heard in the 70's about houses being burned down, but didn't know this was about the creation of a Welsh 4th channel, nor did I know that someone was prepared to go on hunger strike over it. Apparently, the Tories agreed to set up ...
Jul 29, 2014 · 29/07/14 - 21:16 #3. Given that the Welsh speaking population is just under 500,000 a 70,000 rating for Pobol y Cwm translates to 14% of that population. In contrast Coronation Street's recent ratings of around 6 million equate to around 10% of the UK population. So the performance of S4C must be seen against the size of its possible audience ...
