    Ofcom on Audio Description; Audio Only Video Games
    Audio Description has been around for over 30 years: it is filling in the silences on TV, films and the theatre so that blind and partially sighted people can follow the action easier. The current legal requirements for audio description, for all of the major broadcasters, is set at 10% but there are currently no legal requirements for on-demand streaming, such as Netflix and Amazon Prime etc. We speak with one of the Principals in Ofcom's Content Policy team, Cathy Taylor about Ofcom's plans for on-demand streaming and ask whether the requirements should be set higher than 10%.There has been a boom in people playing video games over the lockdown period, and there are plenty of visually impaired people who have been joining in on the fun. We hear about an audio only video game that is entirely accessible to blind and partially sighted players. It is rather rare for an audio only game to reach the major consoles but this one is available on the Xbox. Its called The Vale: The Shadow of the Crown. We hear a review from someone who has played it and we speak to the game's developer, Dave Evans.

    Gold! At The Tokyo Paralympics; Gyms Doing Good Things
    Over the weekend, Team GB's visually impaired athletes won multiple medals: including gold across the cycling, swimming and judo. We check in with our reporter Mani Djazmi who brings us details of those medal wins and interviews with some of our gold medallists.And there could be many reasons why you'd be put off visiting the gym. It could be perceived attitudes or thinking that gyms may not provide the necessary adaptations for you. Well, under the Equalities Act, it is a legal requirement for a gym or leisure centre to make reasonable requirements if you request them and tonight, we'll be hearing about a gym that have done just that for their visually impaired members. We promise we're not trying to push you into training like a Paralympic athlete, but instead would like to show you that getting active can be easier than you may think.

    Paralympic Games; The Art of Blind Photography
    Recently, there has been some criticism about the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic games going ahead, due to a rise in coronavirus cases in Tokyo. Despite this, the games have commenced and on the show, we hear about how they were justified from the President of the International Paralympic Committee, Andrew Parsons. And our reporter Mani Djazmi is in Tokyo and will be telling us who to look out for and about the atmosphere within the Tokyo site, given the pandemic restrictions.And it may seem unlikely that someone who is completely blind can enjoy photography. But we'll be speaking to professional photographers, Pete Eckert and Karren Visser. Karren Visser is progressively losing her sight and she tells us how photography is helping her adapt.Pete Eckert joins us from Sacramento in California. He has had a plethora of opportunities throughout his career due to his unique style of light photography - including shoots for Volkswagen, Playboy and Swarovski. They'll both be telling us how they do it despite having limited or no sight at all and about what photography means to them.Website photograph: 0845 3 by Pete Eckert Presenter: Peter White Producer: Beth Hemmings
