Oh I’m sorry that us northerners don’t sound formal enough for you.

Is that announcer a regular or someone brought in with an appropriate voice as a lot of the recent voices wouldn’t sound very formal

I'd say the same for any local dialects. I love accents but for the pomp of this occasion, the more formal voice just fits.

Thanks for the captures of the special presentation. Saw the flowing grey silk menu live last night and thought that looked extremely classy.
The 2021 rebrand, while not without its faults, has evidently elevated standards across the board. Kudos to the teams involved in coordinating all this.

ITV are using a normal ident, albeit a fairly subdued one with a fairly subdued soundtrack, into tonight’s normal scheduled programming

Do you mind me asking how you managed to access this?
What does that say about a channel if it scares fish? Just talk me through that.
