@netflix why does Season 3 of Fauda not have English sub-titles? Seasons 1 and 2 had them. How do you expect a English speaker to watch a series with a Hebrew soundtrack without sub-titles? Is it cost savings? Unable to post use feedback on yr website. Tsk

Did you know that in 2019, 80% of @ITCnews's work was in sub-Saharan Africa, LDCs, LLDCs, SVEs and post-conflict & fragile states?

As we move forward in our joint effort to contain #COVID19, ITC will continue finding innovative ways of delivering to these countries

Amazing what goes in to a signature tune we hear most days!

[Nancy Kacungira @kacungira]

If you watch BBC News you’ll be familiar with this signature tune.. I was awed to find out how much work and effort it took to make that sound I hear before I go on air!
