BBC considers enlarging credits
The BBC is examining whether to have bigger credits at the end of programmes after complaints that the names of cast and crew were too small to read.
The BBC's current system, brought in last year, scrunches the credits into a box in the corner of the screen to accommodate promotional messages.
"Some people have said that the font is too small to read," a statement from the corporation said.
It added: "We are currently looking to enlarge it."
But the BBC said most viewers "make viewing choices while credits roll and value some information on the relevant viewing options available to them across the BBC portfolio".
