Odd issue with Film4 “off-air” captions on All4

Posted on 29th September 2021 by The Clean Feed Team
Last updated on 5th October 2021 Filed under Bloopers

Most of the All4 live streams remain unavailable as a result of Saturday’s incident at the Red Bee Broadcast Centre.

Only the main Channel 4 service is available but it has been suffering regular technical issues. Where a stream is completely unavailable, it has been replaced by an “Off-Air” caption.

At some point during the day, the text disappeared from the “Off-Air” caption being shown on the Film4 stream. Then, later in the evening, the text re-appeared but in a font that Channel 4 hasn’t used in any of its branding since 2004.
