OpenSubtitles forum

Hi
I am desperately keen to watch this series but I gave up because I couldn’t follow the plot due to there being no subtitles when the dialogue turns to English , which quite a lot of the time actually. The German dialogue has embedded english subs and is fine. any advice would be really appreciated . thanks . I am very hard of hearing .

The effect you describe is typical for movies with multiple languages.

In the case of Das Boot, I am afraid there is no advice to be given.
Hearing Impaired subs for episodes of Das Boot are simply not available.
