Click here for the only information I could find on this, having heard about it on the radio tonight. The BBC has released the latest series of Doctor Who on a DVD it describes as the World’s first that is fully accessible, meaning that it has audio menus for everything, simple button press menus that don’t require visual navigation, and audio captioning on every scene, as well as the usual sub-titles.

This is really cool stuff. We try hard to impress our clients with the importance of accessibility. It’s a legal requirement of course, but developments like this make the argument a lot easier.
