It's true, you would that a nice speaking voice would be fundamental. Shrill and squeaky voices are unpleasant to listen to and there are a few of them on QVC. The first that springs to mind is the fashion guest - Miranda Holder/Holden? I can't listen to her.Watched a bit of the show this morning. Only a very small bit. I don’t know who the presenter is, but she is another from the Alex Kramer school of strident presenting. Such an annoying voice. Do these people not get “voice tested” as well as screen tested.
Although to be fair, these days if I was in charge of “voice testing”, very few people would make it to air as more people annoy me than people who dont.
Oh, the joys of getting old(er) and intolerant.
I agree! So many annoying voices, I now find I actually switch off some of the presenters, something I never did before. Can’t listen to the 3 who came over from the style channel , ( Rezzie, Victoria , and the Brummie one) Ophelia andAlex, who all begin to grate very quickly. Sadly I can’t listen to Miceal either, and after a while Glen’s mumbling becomes unbearable. Oh dear, I am in grumpy old woman mode! ( I’d like to add I’m not objecting to the Brummie accent, believe me, mine is much stronger then hers!)Watched a bit of the show this morning. Only a very small bit.
