Ed Stourton......Not for the tone of his voice so much as it's calmness amongst a sea of ravaging maniacs (JH and JM)
(One minute's silence for his passing from Today

Bill Paterson,
And erm... him who played Grant Mitchell in Eastenders.
As for female voices... am I imagining it, or are there far fewer on tv? I think for a calming voice, I agree with Joanna Lumley. (anyone see that documentary she did on the Northern Lights?)

That's him. He can play a thug very well, but I've seen him ding serious stuff, and he's a realy good presenter and voiceover man.

The voice that gets my goat is that announcer on R4. I can't remember his anme but he's obviously of West Indian descent. I know there was a fuss when he started because many people felt at home more with a traditional RP. And it's not racist. Lenny Henry is Jamaican by descent and his voice would be perfectly acceptable - but for the Brummy twang, of course.
Me? Biased? No! How could I be? I was raised in "Surray"

I dont quite get your point...
Most of the time I enjoy the R4 voices. It's when they interview people who have dry mouths I get put off. It's the sounds of their cheeks and tongues making smacking noises as they speak that makes me 
.
Other than that, i enjoy the soothing tones of pretty much everyone on there (during the day at least)
