...are the most irritating voices on TV, ever?

I think if they handed out awards for the Most Annoying Voice Cast this show would win by a landslide.

yes!! I refuse to watch it now. they're so overly fake English accents. I switch it over to milkshake when it comes on...

Wosname · 16/06/2015 09:55

Oh yes! Ridiculously high pitched and loud! Sooo annoying!!!

Mulligrubs · 16/06/2015 09:58

They really annoy me as well, worst 'cartoon' voices ever!

Trooperslane · 16/06/2015 10:01

I HATE them.

Totally grating.

Oh gosh yes and the little tasmanian devil thing that is meant to sound like Brian Blessed, really grips my sh*t.
(Now wondering if it is Brian Blessed).

It's the worst Angry

plutonimum · 16/06/2015 10:19

Oh, YES, I HATE them! There's no proper meaning-intonation, either, so any child listening just gets LALALALALALALALALALALALALA, instead of sentences, nicely separated into phrases for comprehension!

Are they trying to be British? I always thought it was a bizarre Canadian accent. Either way it's so irritating

DumbledoresKnobblyWand · 16/06/2015 10:51

Kate talks like no human being English person I have ever met Angry

It's not a programme, it's a headache.

Peaceloveandhobnobs · 16/06/2015 14:16

Agree; it gets switched off as soon as it comes on. Like Teacup Travels Confused

MrsHathaway · 16/06/2015 14:29

Hate it so much.

Even leaving aside the fact that it's the worst example of pfb in the world ever...

They've dubbed it without changing the script even slightly. I don't know why they think we can't be trusted to understand Canadian accents Hmm - almost as bad as the dubbing on Waybuloo.

Up there with Tree Fu Tom's voice I'd say. Not the whole cast, just Tom.

fleamadonna · 16/06/2015 15:16

intolerably shrill but at least they mostly speak in proper english, unlike Bing who uses words like "choosed" and "brokeded".

I think I'll write something shrill of my own to sir tony hall.

OhEmGeee · 16/06/2015 15:34

I hate their voices. And I hate Kate's perfect annoying parents.

Thurlow · 16/06/2015 15:41

It just sounds like a euphamism.

Kate and her "Mim-Mim"

I can never, never hear this name without sniggering.

brightnearly · 17/06/2015 13:50

Tree Fu Tom is voiced by Sophie Aldred

RackofPeas · 17/06/2015 14:11

If you want some truly annoying voices try Elias the rescue boat on Netflix. Worse even than Kate and Mim Mim.

plutonimum · 17/06/2015 17:28

Grin at the euphemism of "Kate's Mim-Mim" !

Felyne · 17/06/2015 21:09

What's with Kate's dad's hands? They're oddly massive.
