Who Is The Guy With The Gorgeous, Scottish Voice On The Direct Line Ads?

[numan]

Nothing more to add really!

[rockyracoon]

It really sounds like the actor John Hannah but I can't find anything to back it up.

[emmie]

no idea, but it sounds a bit like Professor Iain Stewart, unlikely to be him, but he has a nice voice.

Here's the ad

[emmie]

but it doesn't say who it is, and i can't find out either. Pretty sure it's not John hannah.

I know emmie- I was just making it easier for people to listen to the ad

[emmie]

i think i have listened to the voice about 10 times, it does sound a bit like Iain Stewart, though seems unlikely. nice soft voice.

[Anngel123]

Sure sounds like Hannah to me....

[Cloverjo]

Is it David Tennant?

[factor-fiction]

I thought it was David Tennant at first but if it was him I'm sure everyone would have recognised him.

[factor-fiction]

You just beat me to it cloverjo

[vakayu]

Greg Mchugh

[emmie]

it might be David Tennant.

[rockyracoon]

Could it be this chap, Callum O'Neill? I still think John Hannah though.

According to info on advert it is GREG MCHUGH

[Baldric]

Try, RICKY SALMON,
sorry, not had time to find a recording of him yet.

[Cloverjo]

Callum O'Neill's voice sounds a tiny bit different, I think. Not quite as soft.

[factor-fiction]

Hi Vakayu- I think your posts may have been overlooked or discounted, so maybe a link would help confirm the info

[emmie]

i listened to Greg McHugh and can't hear the similarities, of course not every actor is going to sound the same each time.

[Cloverjo]

I'd never have thought it was Greg McHugh. I've only seen him in Fresh Meat and he puts on a different Scottish accent in that. Well, now we know, anyway. Ta, vakayu.

[vakayu]

I am simply stating what it says on the advert info site.
