Everyone must have someone. You know the ones. From the second they open their gob, the sound emitted is like nails down a blackboard to you. Like having white noise played to you in a shipping container. I'm not on about the content (though god knows, with my nomination, thats a major factor as well)
Its become an issue as, during the recent floods/end of the world, I seem to have been treated to it on apparently hourly basis as he shoe-horns his massive polished forehead into every news broadcast, with that earnest look of concern all over his massive podgy head. There's been no bloody escape from it.
David Sodding Cameron!!!
I know why too. Its the enunciation. Its like he's v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y, and FIRMLY, explaining, for the 3rd time, to a particularly dim Spanish waiter, that he would like the olives, not the olive oil
Every time I hear his condescendingly articulated tones I want to hacksaw my own ears off and hurl them into another dimension
Who's yours then?
Robert Peston.
Eminem.
I'm with CFH on this. I think Peston is a very bright man but his delivery is really awkward.
half of STW, I have no idea what you all actually sound like but in my head is like some bloke from reading called colin with leather driving gloves who used to be an engineer...
After that the population of the west midlands and america
Sara Cox.
Olly Murs.

David Cameron, Jeremy Vine, Peter Allens grunts and snorting on live radio, Victoria Derbyshire sounds like she cant be bothered unless whoever shes talking to is either terminally ill or destitute whereupon she sounds too concerned !
Steve Wrights slimy chum who knows everything about everything, the list is endless.
Jeremy Vine.
Political persuasion aside, I don't think Cameron is anywhere near as bad as Ed Miliband.
Also, most radio2 DJs: Lily Savage, Alan Carr, Graham Norton, that orange Supermarket Sweep bloke... spot a theme?
Ed Balls
Laugh wise Jimmy Carr.
I cant decide just what I hate about Sean Keavney but I hear his voice and turn the radio off.
My Mother in Law when she is talking to the children.
She stops being 'normal' and starts speaking in this high pitch, lengthy repetitive tone, which then the children repeat....
aarrrrggghhhh
"Anyfingk for yow, coop cek"
Sara Cox +1
I'd be interested in listening to the Sounds of the 80s show on R2 if it wasn't hosted by that bl00dy woman. I simply can't fathom how she ever managed to start a career in radio, let alone keep it going this long? It's not even as if she's just kept in the same job, someone must love her to keep giving her new gigs.
Her and Barbara Windsor - I hear she's a lovely woman but that voice . . . . . . . argh!!!
Tony Blair

It's worth noting that none of you lot have (probably) ever met Danny down our street (No. 29), so, in my head, my suggestion is still winning.
My irritation with Peston is that what he actually says is highly valid, and excellent reporting, but his voice grates to the extent that I can't listen to him!
the guy on this advert, pathetic attempt at a Brummie accent and humor.
I make Barry White sound like Peewee Herman and don't really like any high pitched voice, Northerners who squeek at warp speed are a particular irritation.
I do however like Peewee Herman. 😀
Jeremy Vine
Sara Cox
The bloke sat behind me in the office right now....and he earwigs your every conversation too, git.

Ant
Dec
To name just a few.. I will add more as the day progresses.
Ant, that's a fair call, but Dec?
Robert Peston sounds like Agent Smith, but, he has a stutter and apparently it's how he enunciates in order to deal with it.
Jayne Horrocks - yes love, you're northern, but not that northern
Maxine Peake's breathless hyperbole on Radio 6 at the moment. Another one who is over laying the northern bit
and I'm northern.
Ashley I say Ashley
Off of corra
Terry Christian.
HE'S ON THE BLOODY RADIO AGAIN!!!!! Showering home counties flood victims with money he's stolen from disabled people AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Also Chris Hawkins is on 6 music instead of Mark and Stuart. He's ruining my week with his station announcer dreariness. Who on earth gave him a job as a DJ. Oh… that reminds me…. George Bloody Lamb!!!! The ****!!!
a woman called Julie who works in my office, she's a special sort of person and when she laughs both my fists clench.
Robert Peston (again)
Jimmy Carr (mainly the laugh)
Alan Carr
and the woman who does/did the voice over on Masterchef.
