Where does TalkSport find so many irritating-sounding announcers and reporters? Is there a special agency for them? Does Sammi-Jo Lowe run it these days?
On a scale of units of Sammi-Jo Lowes (SJLs), with 1 being 'almost tolerable' and 10 being 'hurl the radio through a closed window', I'd rate the current bunch like this:
Michael Page: weekend traffic announcer, it took him about three months to realise that whispering his reports was of no use to anyone, and yet he still mumbles. 5/10 SJLs.
Steven Hartley: main TS voiceover man. He was on H&J recently and seemed a likeable bloke, so why he makes every voiceover sound like it's by a really angry man who's just backed his lorry over your bike is a mystery. 6.5/10 SJLs.
Victoria Bourne: newsreader, quite competent and probably loved by some, but to me she sounds as if she's trying to make every single news item, no matter how serious or tragic, sound like an M&S ad for a chocolate-based dessert. It's like smugness, creepiness and perviness wrapped up in a ball of congealed sick. 9/10 SJLs.
Emma Trinder: traffic reporter, she has a bizarre belief that adding a 'u' to words is good diction, so 'closed' becomes 'cu-losed' and 'drive' becomes 'du-rive'. It's a puzzle why she doesn't end the reports by saying, 'I'm Emma Tu-rinder'. Effortlessly irritating. 9/10 SJLs.

Same reason that Orr’s whore in Rome hit him on the head with her shoe: because he paid her to.
