Hi, Dancing With the Stars fans. We wanted to let you know we're unable to caption the live broadcast of this season of Dancing With the Stars as Three do not have live captioning technology. However, we will have the Saturday repeats captioned, starting at 11.30am.

Hi, everyone. Unfortunately, captions are unavailable on Three via the SKY platform due to an equipment failure. MediaWorks has said the problem should be resolved in a few weeks. We are sorry for the disruption.
