Don't you just love radio plays with good actors?

C'est le calme plat... c'est beau. I have a new morning thing that keeps things nice and calm in the morning, I listen to Alex Taylor's morning show on France Musiques. He has quite a soothing voice and you can't go wrong with his lovely accent... and apparently he's an English gentleman in his 50s and we all know that I have a thing for older English gentlemen (extra points if they happen to be gay, for some reason). In terms of voice porn*, he's quite close in my list to Paul McGann's voice when he plays Eight in the Doctor Who audioseries. And that is all I had to say. On to more calm... * if you have no idea what "voice porn" is, you live in a sad world. It's when you could listen to someone read off the Yellow Pages and still be glued to the radio. It often happens to me when I listen to radio plays, the plot is often horrible but I can't stop listening because one of the actors just has that kind of a voice you can't stop listening to.

Yup, yup, Stephen Fry is one of those people who just happen to have a good voice for radio plays/audiobooks. I suppose John Barrowman too but whenever I hear his voice I now associate it to the fake American accent he tried to put on and it's a big turn off. Ah, nobody is perfect!
