Nearly all of Arriva's next stop announcements are wrong in some way.

Darlington 5/5A: Sound varies dependent on which bus and driver you have. New bus stops added which aren't on the list of stops in Shildon. On one journey stops were out of sync on one Darlington bound 5A journey I was on.

Sapphire 7: some stops aren't announced, on some examples have the screen too far to the right, DurhamGate is spelt wrong (Durham gate on Durham bound journeys and Durham Gate on Darlington journeys), West ChiltonTerrace (think there should be a space in there). New stops added which aren't on the list.

Sapphire X3/X3A/X4: leaving Middlesbrough the announcements are stuck on Middlesbrough Bus Station until it reaches the next stop.

These are some of the issues I have seen when I have been out and about on outings, I don't regularly do all routes with announcements so I may have missed some.

And outside the Arriva announcements I've never heard Coatham pronounced "Co-tham"!
