TVP international channel which shows polish soaps and movies with english subtitles. Actually the only channel which is really helping me with my polish exposure..
I watch TVN24 a lot. Monika Olejnik show and Szkło kontaktowe. Also BBC, CNN and Deutche Welle (to learn German) and TV3Monde for pretty, well dressed French female anouncers and the sound of French. I watch some sports channels, too. Soccer and sometimes speedway.
Wroclaw...maybe you'll read this, our regional TV station called Ulster TV in N Ireland is doing a programme about Wroclaw on Thursday nite coming, 7.30pm local time about the mass exodus of people from your city and the mayor wanting them to come back.......!!
It is beautiful, and unique...has lots going for it.....hope to visit again in November!
It's a programme I'd love to see. I've heard stories of people being offered a bounty to come back. Also, some of the people here are more than a little pi**ed off because those who return are being offered higher wages than those who stayed. There are a lot of people here who don't want them back for this reason.
When you come in November I'll buy you a beer in Kelly's bar.
I remember when I lived in Ireland [age 5] my mum used to get annoyed with me because every second word was "sure" or "surrrrre'
Yes. Just let me know a few days before you get here.
For those learning English, who have BBC Prime, use Teletext page 888 for English subtitles. Then you can listen and read. It will help you to catch some of the vocabulary. I don't know if this works with cable TV. We have satellite TV.
Rafal Dutkiewicz appears on BBC World - Hardtalk, 9th October.
Wroclaw.. is it possible to get english subtitles by teletext for any other channels ? zone euopa would be great, but anything that I can have in english subtitles would be great.
Please tell me what system you have. Is it satellite: Canal +, Polsat. Or terrestrial. Or do you have cable.
The Canal + package has programmes in English. You just hit a button on the remote.
Polsat has some programmes in English. But I never watch it, so I can't help you much with that.
I think we need input from other posters on this subject. There are Polish programmes with English subtitles and English programmes with Polish sutitles. It's just a matter of finding them.
English TV has tooooo many reality & Z list celebrity programs not all of them are bad but most :)
Celebrity come dancing ------> only thing worth watching it for is as spiritus said Celebrity ice skating Celebrity horse jumping ------> ffs about as good as what comes out of a horses **** Celebritity big brother ------> Boring Celebrity darts -------> really getting desperate now Celebrity farm --------> same as horse jumping Celebrity masterchef Celebrity stars in their eyes Celebrity fame academy Celebrity the Match ......... Celebrity driving school there are others , but for me these are some of the worst
Some of those are German so you won't be able to change anything. But, if you have Bloomberg it might be the English version and Deutsche Welle has an English version. Polonia 1 has English subtitles [I think.] Zone Europe, try to change language on the decoder remote control.
Sometimes it's hit and miss. I've found good Arabic movies with English subtitles. At other times nothing.
For the ones with Cyfra+: CanalPlus and HBO have Polish subtitles on teletext. So you can listen to the original and watch the Polish subtitles. It's better than this narrator, anyway.
My current neighbours are english wroclaw but i know they receive the german channels i only have sky digital at the minute, but would like the tv channels for polish tv when i move house to assist and aid in my understanding and learning of the language :)
I cant remember the system a friend of mine had in the shared house she was in that aired polish channels :)
the satellite systems i notice when i am out and about on houses are ISS ... PolSat .. Cyfra mainly ... i know i would not be interested in the sports channels lol as i dont watch them on sky digital ... i do watch entertainment channels for comedies and dramas ... music channels ... movie channels mainly my daughter watches all the cartoon ones but esp disney channel :)
