Agreed! It's these ridiculously haughty accents as if they've a rod up their bums that annoy me. I don't mean an accent that's a bit posh - that can sound nice, and I don't care once it's natural. But those extremely forced, stuck-up accents - how do they keep it up!

I don't get that at all. She has a pretty normal voice, and nothing like what you've written.

Are you mad? She has one of those over-pronounce-ey Dublin suburb accents with a bit of sweet valley high thrown in. She pronounces "ray" as ray-ee, and eventhough she mentions "bra" 20 times per show, she still cant pronounce it right, it sounds like "brauer".

Seriously don't get what you're on about. I don't hear that in her voice at all.

Listen to this. Compare Mairead with Grainne. Listen to the way Mairead pronounces "older" at 14 secs. She says "Oh-ulder". And at 50 secs, "worn" becomes a guttural, throathy, fake California wo(throat)rn. Its actually hard to try and do that.

Rachel Allen went to Mount Anville; anyone going there drops the culchie accent on day 1 and takes on a D4 accent. I knew a girl who had the thickest Wickla accent and went to one of the more exclusive Southside schools. came back home with a perfect D4 speaking voice inside a week. Nothing like peer pressure to get you to dump the local accent in a heartbeat..........apart from that, Lorraine Keane's "rindabite" which grates on me like a dentist's drill; Dohhy O'Shea Kerrea schtick is awful but is actually perfectly normal for Kerry; Jorry Adams' command of Norn Irish is garbage to listen to, as is the weather forecast from one of the Donegal people on Met Eireann. I prefer the Polish girl who reads the forecast...

ZiabR

Katie Taylor for me to... ohh that voice...

LynnGrace

Mary Lou, her voice is very harsh.

Accents that sound forced to the point where it is sometimes difficult to know what the person is saying, are hard to listen to.
Sinead Desmond on TV3, Miriam O'Callaghan, and Rachel Allen are three that spring to mind.

Ba ba ba bertie thanks be to fcuk we don't have to listen to that stuttering bum anymore

Surely he's been mentioned already but it has to be Ryan Tubridy.

Ray Darcy, listened to him reading the newspaper headlines on his radio show the other morning and I had never heard anything so monotone and dull. Gone were the days he presented The Den, he had a bit of personality back then.

Niamh kavanagh has a peculiar accent, where's she from?

Pat Kenny , by a long shot

Brian Clowen also comes across as an ignorant pig headed buffoon every time he's speaking in public.

I can't disagree with Katie Taylor

I have to turn off the RTÉ News whenver the Cork correspondant does a report. Jenny O Sullivan I think her name is.

I guess Paschal Sheehy/Plastic Sheeting must really tip you over the edge, so.

WTF sort of a nasally accent is that? Only ad on the radio that makes me station jump immediately I so much cant stand to hear it. Baseball bat to the fcuking throat is called for.

I can't believe nobody said this until page 4 of the thread.

When I saw the thread title, that Phoneix Magazine man came immediately to mind.

He sounds like someone parodying a nasal D4 accent, except it doesn't seem to be a parody. He also sounds like Dara Calleary TD.

I love Phoenix magazine, but cannot stand the ads.

The Northern Ireland accent is quite delish on a man though!

Too lazy to trawl through 13 pages, but if Willie O'Dea hasn't been mentioned, I demand a full, independent judicial inquiry. That bloke's voice could turn milk sour at a thousand yards.

The "Goldhawk calling" voice in the Phoenix ads are a parody of how Charlie Haughey spoke.

It doesn't sound a bit like Haughey. Haughey's voice was far more placid. He spoke with a received Irish accent, at a noticeably lower pitch. It's quite easy to impersonate.

Ursula Halligan from TV3 News. Like Bosco on mdma without the self awareness.
