| Rather worryingly, one of the drivers I heard this afternoon sounded uncannily like a BBC continuity announcer I know. |
| Graham Roberts was a continuity announcer on Yorkshire Television for 22 years and was a presenter of news and features programmes. |
| As the announcer makes the introduction, the rikishi climbs onto the dohyo and walks along its outer perimeter. |
| And lo, the smooth voiced TV announcer came upon them and the glories of many fine possessions shown round about them. |
| John Benson was regarded by many in the trade, as the definitive continuity announcer of the sixties. |
| But the announcer intoned visitors' names in a voice so soft, so dipped, that those men were reduced to whispered asides. |
