He sounds like http://www.viaintercity.com/promo30s.mp3 (http://www.viaintercity.com/promo30s.mp3) ;D
Available for a limited time only so listen now to avoid disappointment LOL. You can now read all my forum posts in that grating cheesy voice ::) (pun intended)!
I've entered us in Sky Blue Radio (http://skyblueradio.com/)'s (anyone here listened to them?) VA Days 2014 and Virtual Airline of the Year competition, which required me to record a 30 second promotional dry trail about the airline for them to air throughout VA Days 2014, which is the recording above. Unfortunately I had to rush it with a handheld USB mic so the quality isn't the best.
PS: It's nice to see so many new pictures in the Screenshot Gallery, I was getting a bit fed up of seeing the same ones on the home page all the time :D
Well you sold it to me Boss!
Oh wait - I'm already sold on Intercity 8)

I'm not Scouse! But I do a good Scouse impression (or more specifically, Lily Savage) ;D I'm always staggered by the sheer variety of accents within our small island, it seems we have more than the USA despite only being 600 miles from top to bottom. This link illustrates it rather nicely within a couple of minutes, hopefully it's viewable outside the UK:

Good job you are not scouse. Our dash 8s would all be up on bricks. For our non British members this is a regionalist dig at out northern brethren.

Ermm Ill have you know I
LIVE and
WORK in Liverpool...but im from a bit further up north ;)
So where do you park the whippet and ferret then chris?
Well you probably can't tell from that sound clip but I come from the Midlands (however I am right next to the Northern border). And generally Southerners deny the existence of the Midlands so that means Intercity is run by a pair of Northerners who are partial to suet pudding, pork pies, gravy and anything from Greggs (http://www.stoford.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Greggs-1.jpg) :o Oh and mining, we love a bit of mining!
Does that make us Yorkshire Airlines? I'm sure I can bodge an ale tap on to the J41's yokes...
