London PA Voice Emma Clarke F ired for Slamming Tube
James Farrar (James Farrar ) gurgled happily,
sounding much like they were saying: A bizarre thing I heard on Southern recently was an obviously synthesised voice saying "London Underground have informed me ...". Oh, that winds me up, along with "I am sorry for the delay to this service". You can't be sorry, you're a computer. "We are sorry" would be far better. "On behalf of all the computers in this server room..." |
