BBC Weather Forecasters

Why do male BBC Weather Forecaters use poor diction?
In particular, Matt Taylor talks to fast, and slurs his words making the forecast difficlt to understand.
With the high Salary they pay, why not employ the best?
Or is it favouritism?

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

Matt is a jock and like most jocks with their accents, slurring often occurs. He sounds much clearer on the radio when relaying the Shipping Forecast, unlike Susan Powell who often blends one word into another when doing the ships :yes:

I have never noticed the males tbh.

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

That smarmy, scruffy bugger Tomasz Schafernaker gives me the real hump! Always looks as if he's doing you a favour by giving the forecast. I have to leave the room when he appears, trying to keep my blood pressure down!

Well of course Longdogs, being you, you wouldn't.
Would you?

Put the subtitles on!
They're hilarious sometimes!

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

What about that women forecaster with the surname Blizzard?

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

The best weather forecasters that I've seen are Carol Kirkwood.

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

Some of the BBC weather forecasters are, apparently, failed business forecasters!

They have more available than we have toilet rolls.

Re: BBC Weather Forecasters

What, both of them?
