Now, this is a general question as to the idea, basically as a bit of fun really. There was a campaign on Facebook a while ago to get the guy who does the voice overs on E4 and X-Factor as the voice of the Tube. I keep imagining the sounds of "This train terminates at Willesden Green" in his tones and it always makes me smile. Today i had an even better way of making iBus more tollerable for the annoyed/annoying passenger. Get this guy to do the recordings instead of Emma ;D Thoughts?

Ive always thought the bloke that does the voice of the croydon tramlink is very good. He has a very clear voice.

Perish the thought Couldn't imagine Peter D!ckson (that's his name IIRC) doing the tube announcements, I'd never be able to take him seriously and would crack up laughing every time... let him stick with what he does best, the over-the-top voiceovers on E4 ;D Edit: swear filter kicked in, work his name out for yourselves How about the guy that does Big Brother; ''This is the 370, to Romford Market'' Haha!, that would be great ;D 53 to Whitehall, Horseguards ;D ;D Or Peggy from Eastenders "This bus terminates here, get out of my bus!" Peggy (Barbara Windsor) would sound more like "This bus terminates here, GET AHT-TA MA BUS!!!" surely? ;D

I wouldn't mind if the following people did the recordings for the IBus: - Ray Winstone
- Dame Helen Mirren
- Tom Baker
- Dave Lamb
- Boris Johnson
- Natasha Kaplinsky

I think it would have been best if there were 2 voices for i-bus, One for the names of the stops, and one for the route number and destination. If you had Emma for the bus stop names, then what about Steven Hartley (Superintendent Tom Chandler in the Bill) doing the route number and destinations? He has done plenty of TalkSport adverts and aprogramme announcements and he has a very clear and strong voice. He is ideal for this type of work. - Gareth.
