Let's Hear It...

[woodelf]

Either side of an ad break, just before ITV's The Chase starts, there's a little "Let's hear it for the..." then there's a rush of voices and music and I can't quite make out what is said, so who do we "Let's hear it for the..."? Ta Muchly and Take Care All!

[Etch]

There's a trailer I've seen during ad breaks, probably on Dave, that goes "Let's hear it for the great Will Smith", with Will Smith appearing to a group of adoring fans.

[woodelf]

Thanks for that Etch, I'll listen more closely today wehn The Chase is on and see what I hear - or rather, hear what I hear - or even hear what I see...well, it wouldn't be me if I weren't daft, eh...as many would testify!

[DarceyK123]

Maybe put the subtitles on?

[Chinajan]

There are no subtitles on it.

I've seen it when I watch The Chase on Challenge. I think Etch is on the right lines but it sounds to me like the announcer is saying, 'Let's hear it for the......[perhaps great Will Smith?]' before Will Smith appears and says, 'Welcome, welcome'.

[woodelf]

OK CJ, even more to listen for, but I seem to remember the 'welcome' bit, but it's gettin' more exciting than the programme itself!

[Chinajan]

Wouldn't go that far woodelf! :-D

[Etch]

Ah, yes, it'll be Challenge that I've seen it on when watching old episodes of The Chase. I think the actual words are "Let's hear it for the great Mister Will Smith".

[Musictv2019]

Would it be lets hear it for the boy.

[woodelf]

Sorry CJ, I must have been thinking of Pointless and the absolute pointless SISI host, if you can call him that - thereby stirring a hornets' nest!

[Etch]

I managed to capture it by recording part of The Chase on Challenge this afternoon. The words are "Let's hear it for the brilliant Mister Will Smith".

[Chinajan]

Well done Etch.

Side note: this announcer's voice reminds me of that of the Come Dine with Me chap, Dave Lamb. Don't know if it is him.

[woodelf]

I'm sorry Etch but, even as I type this, I am listy to my own "recording" of the ad bit and it sounds more like a "or" or "doors" word(s) after "brilliant", rather than Will Smith etc, etc, but then I was only using a dictaphone - but hey-ho, it's only an ad!
