Totally agree... Non better.

Came here to say that, but only the earlier stuff, later he became a bit too self-aware.

Sean Pertwee on Professional Masterchef is silky-smooth.

Agree with Sean P.

Finchy from the office (Ralph Ineson) does a lot (e.g. Dacia), he's got a nice distinctive voice.

Close second to Burton...

Oliver Postgate... If you're a child of the 70s and 80s you'll know why.

He's good, however I prefer India Fisher on the regular version.

Come here to say Sean Pertwee.

Just as good describing a sumptuous desert as screaming with a dog pulling on his guts.
