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.

    I picture them as being like one of the Herrenvolk types you see in Kinder ads.
