“Educated The Fattest”,”Dead In A Boat?” …
A free screening of the 2006 movie “The Queen” aimed at the deaf in Ryde, Australia, left many baffled by the subtitles for the film — which revolves around the aftermath of the death of Britain’s Princess Diana.
Mistaken lines included dialogue about former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s having been “educated at Fettes” being translated at the bottom of the screen as “educated the fattest.” Additionally, “Did you vote?” became “Dead in a boat?” and “every newspaper proprietor has blood on his hands today” was printed as “every newspaper proprietor has blown in his hands today.”
It was not revealed where the delinquent DVD came from, only that it was swapped at the last minute when a previous DVD was also found to have problems with its captioning.
