richard burton. what a voice.

trouble is, he'd just keep directing you to the nearest pub

but it would make for an "interesting" journey !!

I don't have sat nav, but my choice would be either Stephen Fry, or Bernard Cribbins in the style of the youngest Womble (the one who always sounded unsure about everything, his name escapes me ::))

when he was on Parkie, they did the interview first thing in the morning, with the cleaners as an audience. Any time later, and he'd have been too bladdered to make any sense. So don't plan on driving anywhere after about 9 in the morning

I'd also quite like Stephen Fry, or Alan Rickman at his most sarcastic.....'I said turn LEFT you dolt!' ;D
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Kelly-Le-Brocke would be my co-pilot.

Did you know some sat navs allow you to download different voice styles such as James Bond, Bart Simpson and even one with tourettes ::) ::) ::)

One of the 'Sorry I  havn't a clue' programmes use a sat nav in Mornington Crescent. You have never heard anything so funny. I have tried to find it on line but have drawn a blank. Humph was still in it then.

I do not have a sat nav but if I did it would have to be John Nettles.

I have my dearest, darling wife.  Oh sorry I thought you said sat nag ;)

Darling Ace you mean you haven't trained her  ;D

Really great voices there folks, maybe a sat nav with different voices once you cross the county boundaries would be fun too.

yup it was superb, but I think (and it is a think!) that Stephen Fry used it when he was doing his stint in the chair ....

Voice change for differrent areas.  What a good idea.  Going over the border into Scotland and getting a change to a Scottish dialect.  What fun.
