Robert Preston

[Samuraisan]

Does anyone else find his way of speaking irritating ? ITV news political reporter.

I hadn't read the posts Samurasian. Of course ,if you didn't know then no harm was meant. Sorry if I upset you. :)

He knows what his subject matter and I admire him, however, he shouldn't be doing the job he is doing.

[Peter Pedant]

There is a Robert Preston - or was
He was in Victor, Victoria

( and I thought 55 d in Peking - but ho hum )

[Samuraisan]

That's okay jourdain, takes more than that to upset me !

Suggest a suitable job, Garaman........and why.

[DTCwordfan]

speech therapist, the reason obvious.......?

[bednobs]

one can have admiration for overcoming his speech impediment whilst still finding his way of speaking irritating surely?

[DTCwordfan]

actually he was talking about it on R4 this past week, admitting his kids find him a pain in the proverbial, voice-wise....quite refreshing but a little troweled on, me suspects, as he knows this differentiates him on air. So be it.

//Suggest a suitable job, Garaman........and why.//

Suggest one yourself if you like. I am just saying he isn't suitable for the job he is doing.

[Tilly2]

He may be irritating to listen to but he knows what he's saying.

[Tilly2]

...and I know what he's on about.

[Bazile]

His speech is a lot better than it was ,when he was with the BBC
