Ah yes, I've heard about these blokes who sit down at their computers and forget all about human contact for days on end.

No, it was purely his enunciation that I thought

I have, I suppose, heard the odd crackly recording of Alvar Liddell, but the main impression I have of him is that I was told he had to wear black tie in order to read the news on radio. I find Peter Donaldson's enunciation pleasing, and if you put your hand on his shoulder when he's talking you can feel the resonance - the man's a sound-box on legs.

(How about Douglas Smith?)

Now, I do admit to going back as far as Round the Horne.
