Title: Most distinctive voices
Post by: Miss Demeanour on November 22, 2011, 08:19:33 PM: There are certain voices ( on the telly or radio ) that you would recognise in an instant wherever you are.

Sean Pertwee is one of those. He does many voice overs and you can tell in an instant tis him .

Whose voice do you instantly recognise regardless of circumstance ( family and friends excluded ) ?
