Most annoying voices

    Most of mine seem to be on Irish TV/radio. In no particular order:

    1. Anne Doyle. She's sounds like Neville Chamberlain
    2. Tom Dunne - can't listen to him for more than 30 seconds
    3. Tony Fenton - see Tom Dunne only multiply by 50
    4. The guy on todayfm who introduces "The Last Word" and does the voice over for a lot of their ads. Sounds constapated
    5 Mark Little - Need I say more?
    6. Peter Collins - see number 5

    A friend of my ma's has a voice like a deep bassy cat being pulled through a cheesegrater. Always shouts, too. Horrible.

    Ted! Were you asking for a dramatic, exciting voice?

    No. He said annoying. He wanted a annoying voice.

    In that case, you must excuse me for my impetuous interruption!

    Really thick country accented voices that I can't understand (and I grew up in Kerry :rolleyes:)

    Dudess' voice is really annoying.

    Heard her on one of those boards podcasts once. No offence Dudess but you sound like a hairy Dublin man trying to impersonate a Cork-woman.

    There is this woman who does the news headlines on Red FM (which I don't actually listen to) and by god she has the most annoying voice. She sounds like a shouting, very serious 8 year old girl with a very high pitched voice!

    maybe the title is incorrect, but i would consider mid atlantic to be that horrible fake american accent you see many people adapt since the likes of those horrible mtv programmes. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. If i is was not a peace loving violent i would love to rip out their bloody vocals chords.

    Most sports news readers on radio. I think you HAVE to have an annoying voice for that. Alot of em seem to be making an attempt to not sound like twats and funnily enough, they still do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,838 ✭✭✭✭3hn2givr7mx1sc


    Jonafan Woss. I love his program but his voice is annoying.
    Norris out of Coronation Street.
    Some yoke off WWE, Vickie something, the nephew can't hear for shíe so he does have the telly blaring and he's always watching wrestling so you can basically hear her voice throughout the house.:mad::mad:
    Jedward.

    I absolutely love Cheryl Cole's accent.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,932 ✭✭✭hinault


    Today FM's Michael McMullen : as soon as this clowns grating voice appears on radio, I change the station pronto.

    Go to be the worst radio voice in this country.
