Funny, because I'd say a well known voice from the region would be someone like Tim Healy, Jimmy Nail, Alan Shearer, etc.
Still think my suggestion of Holly and Charlotte off Geordie Shore would have went down well with the younguns.
Didn't Tim Healy and other local celebs do the Metro 'stand clear of the doors please' announcements 15/20 years ago?
