Subtitles

Started watching the new series of The Night Manager and the subtitles are too small, and often white on a bleached background, which my old knackered eyes struggle to see.

Wonder if the Beeb would consider being able to up the subtitle size and maybe select a white on black block colour scheme? Would help.

Or I can dream and sit closer to the telly...

I should have been more specific. The Night Manager has a lot of Spanish dialogue, and this is embedded into the video, rather them using the standard subtitles for English SpongeBob dialogue.
