These subtitles are completely useless. I can understand him perfectly, even though English isn't my native language. Seems slightly racist to me.

#3 I agree with you, but as far as I know its a fact that non-native English speakers understand other dialects better than native English speaking people (since they speak/understand other language(s) as well). I also know this from personal experience because I was a translator for a humanitarian organization and talked in English with people from all over the world and could perfectly understand English spoken with Russian or Scottish accent for example, while other people from the group that were from America, could barely understand something. There is a saying that behind each sign there is a story. i can say that the same could go to the subtitles

#5 That's very interesting. And also counter-intuitive for me. So a Scottish dialect would be in fact even less comprehensible for a Londoner than for me?
#6 If you observe closely, you'll notice that the voice from the off isn't subtitled.

#10 Unfortunately the chief being the chief, demanded that he slept out that night in just his slippers and well the documentary kinda ended there

#9 Well that depends on the person. A Londoner there is a higher chance to understand a Scottish speaker since they live close to each other and most probably he has encountered more Scottish people than an American. But also I have met people from UK that were having difficulties understanding Scottish people.
#7 well it seems that #4 was fast0r than you today
