I don't think it's racist or classist to suggest that introducing the news bulletin following the monarch's funeral in an upbeat way which jars with the very moving monologue which closed the broadcast, or introducing a Panorama about mental health with a cheery up inflection on the phrase "scenes of suicide and self harm" is something of a departure from the standard of announcing that we are used to.
There are other examples online of the announcer who did that Panorama link that sound a lot better. I think she's possibly ended up with a script that's too long for the time she's got and she's rushing it and losing clarity. Somebody having a bad day rather than somebody who is unsuitable for the job.
