Hello everyone, it has been a battle for many years but I have noticed that it looks like Sky in the UK has finally started to introduce some Audio described content on demand. Hopefully this is the start of a bigger rollout. It seems quite limited at the moment and I have only noticed a few TV shows and movies with AD.

If you can give me some indication of which shows I can check now tv too.

This is a very welcome improvement. I don't think I'd ever get the full fat sky experience, it is too much of a compromise compared with something like the apple tv, but if their stand alone streaming through now is gaining these features, I'm all in.

I haven’t found anything currently available on NOW TV with audio description, but hopefully this will follow. Title still seem quite limited on Skye, I’ve only come across a few films so far, including Transformers, wicked and the second Joker film, and a couple of TV shows, including task and the paper, but there may be more that I just haven’t come across yet. Hopefully this is just the start of the initial rollout, and a lot more titles will be added in the coming weeks and months, and these hopefully will also be available through now as well. I have heard that Sky may be making some announcement on all this in the coming weeks, but we will just have to wait and see I guess.
