Everyone must have someone. You know the ones. From the second they open their gob, the sound emitted is like nails down a blackboard to you. Like having white noise played to you in a shipping container. I'm not on about the content (though god knows, with my nomination, thats a major factor as well)

Its become an issue as, during the recent floods/end of the world, I seem to have been treated to it on apparently hourly basis as he shoe-horns his massive polished forehead into every news broadcast, with that earnest look of concern all over his massive podgy head. There's been no bloody escape from it.

David Sodding Cameron!!!

I know why too. Its the enunciation. Its like he's v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y, and FIRMLY, explaining, for the 3rd time, to a particularly dim Spanish waiter, that he would like the olives, not the olive oil

Every time I hear his condescendingly articulated tones I want to hacksaw my own ears off and hurl them into another dimension

Who's yours then?

I'm with CFH on this. I think Peston is a very bright man but his delivery is really awkward.

David Cameron, Jeremy Vine, Peter Allens grunts and snorting on live radio, Victoria Derbyshire sounds like she cant be bothered unless whoever shes talking to is either terminally ill or destitute whereupon she sounds too concerned !

Political persuasion aside, I don't think Cameron is anywhere near as bad as Ed Miliband.

Also, most radio2 DJs: Lily Savage, Alan Carr, Graham Norton, that orange Supermarket Sweep bloke... spot a theme?

She stops being 'normal' and starts speaking in this high pitch, lengthy repetitive tone, which then the children repeat....

I'd be interested in listening to the Sounds of the 80s show on R2 if it wasn't hosted by that bl00dy woman. I simply can't fathom how she ever managed to start a career in radio, let alone keep it going this long? It's not even as if she's just kept in the same job, someone must love her to keep giving her new gigs.

Her and Barbara Windsor - I hear she's a lovely woman but that voice . . . . . . . argh!!!

It's worth noting that none of you lot have (probably) ever met Danny down our street (No. 29), so, in my head, my suggestion is still winning.

My irritation with Peston is that what he actually says is highly valid, and excellent reporting, but his voice grates to the extent that I can't listen to him!

I make Barry White sound like Peewee Herman and don't really like any high pitched voice, Northerners who squeek at warp speed are a particular irritation.

I do however like Peewee Herman. 😀

Robert Peston sounds like Agent Smith, but, he has a stutter and apparently it's how he enunciates in order to deal with it.

Jayne Horrocks - yes love, you're northern, but not that northern

Maxine Peake's breathless hyperbole on Radio 6 at the moment. Another one who is over laying the northern bit

and I'm northern.

The guy who does the sneering, obvious and utterly unfunny voice-over for that singularity of annoyance, 'Come Dine With Me".

Also Kirsty Allsop. Sounds like she's about to have a tantrum unless daddy promises to buy her a pony.

Peston is great, and so easy to imitate. I think he has become worse though - a parody of himself.

Disliked generic voices would be girls putting on a really girlie baby doll voice. Seems to annoy real women too!

And a wet, whiney cockney voice - seems v prealent in SE London.

All regional UK accents. Especially binners'.
If it isn't RP it's an assault on the ears.
I'm guessing that covers all the northern chippy monkeys, faux cockney wannabees and pasty-wrangling sou'westerners in here then.
And dont get me started on the hoots-mon wee-eck'ophiles.

Many years ago, I worked with a Brummie Jehova's Witness. Lovely guy all round, as it happens and hilariously funny.

He used to sing, in the style of Jimmy Saville, Linger by the Cranberries.

Thinking back on it now, it seems very, very odd to say the least, but at the time, it was hilarious!
