Normal People fans using subtitles in sex scenes

Some \'Normal People\' viewers are having to use subtitles during raunchy sex scenes.

The hit BBC series - which stars English actress Daisy Edgar-Jones and Irish actor Paul Mescal - has left viewers baffled by some of the stars\' thick accents, and they have turned to the subtitles to help understand what the characters are saying.

One fan tweeted: "I\'m finally starting Normal People because I found subtitles."

"They\'re too hot I forget to listen to the words."

The series - which is adapted from Sally Rooney\'s novel of the same name - follows the tender relationship of Marianne (Daisy) and Connell (Paul) from the end of their school days to their undergraduate years.

The programme will now be available to watch in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Germany, France, Denmark, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, the Benelux countries, Greece, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States, Latin America and Japan.
