Who would you like to make train passenger announcements?

[matacaster]

Which celebrity would you like to voice on-train passenger announcements?

One's who spring to mind are Sean Dyche and Fenella Fielding, Marilyn Monroe (although I think they are both dead)

 

[Bertie the bus]

The Reverend Ian Paisley.

 

[ollyrogers]

Joe Pasquale?

 

[AlterEgo]

The Reverend Ian Paisley.

Good call. He could alternate with Brian Blessed.

 

[Jonfun]

Alan Partridge.

 

[OhNoAPacer]

Professor Stanley Unwin

 

[Silver Cobra]

I'd like Brian Blessed to make announcements. They'd certainly get your attention, that's for sure

 

[Mag_seven]

Whoever can do the sound of silence.

 

[OhNoAPacer]

Whoever can do the sound of silence.

You would be after John Cage then, though you would only get 4' 33"

 

[Intermodal]

Clearly the only real answer is David Attenborough!

 

[whhistle]

Paul McGann has a good voice, but I wouldn't like to hear him all the time.
Same with the late John Peel.

 

[BRblue]

Whispering Bob Harris.

 

[rd749249]

Stephen Hawkin

 

[Stampy]

Darth Vader......

 

[superalbs]

Probably me.

 

[Bucephalus]

Jo brand

 

[DanTrain]

Sean Bean!

 

[E_Reeves]

Alan Carr? May get annoying after a while though!

 

[BRblue]

Sean Bean!

Or Mr Bean!

 

[dk1]

Nobody at all. There are far too many already.

 

[DanTrain]

Or Mr Bean!

Would beat a Northern guard any day for clarity!

 

[AM9]

Kathy Burke, - especially in times of disruption when she could express empathy with stricken passengers.

or Geoffrey Palmer, - a prime practitioner of sardonic delivery and disinterest, perfect for the job.

 

[ComUtoR]

John Boyega

 

[Master29]

Norman Collier....

 

[LLivery]

Clearly the only real answer is David Attenborough!

At Attenborough.

Micheal Caine would be great. "Don't blow the bloody doors off, just press the button."

 

[TheEdge]

The dulcet tones of Morgan Freeman

 

[backontrack]

Neil Oliver.

"This is London Euston, and this train terminates here. This train will now become the site of a human exodus on a massive scale..."

Or perhaps, more seriously: Philomena Cunk. I would actually love that.

 

[stut]

The Reverend Ian Paisley.

"Customers are reminded that smoking on board is NEVER, NEVER, NEVER permitted on our services."

 

[nlogax]

Or perhaps, more seriously: Philomena Cunk. I would actually love that.

"Please mind the little floor before stepping onto the big floor". Any TOC using Cunk for announcements would get my immediate patronage.

 

[Wombat]

Mick Cash.

"The 11:03 South Western Railway service to London Waterloo will depart from platform 3. This is due to the tireless efforts of loyal, hard-working staff in the face of continual savage assaults on the workforce by the fatcat bosses of foreign-owned companies and their ideologically-driven paymasters in the Department for Transport. Please mind the gap between the train and the platform edge."
