Pointless, British Sign Language, BBC One, 31st March-2nd April 2025

Summary of complaint

We received complaints from viewers who were unhappy that three episodes were broadcast with British Sign Language.


Our response

These episodes featured deaf contestants who are British Sign Language (BSL) users.  As part of our continuing commitment to be inclusive and accessible to all our audience it was decided to make these episodes fully accessible from the point of viewing for BSL viewers - including of course the contestants themselves, who might otherwise be unable to fully enjoy the episodes they contributed to.
