To think that Jeremy Paxman sounds a bit.....different?

[PyongyangKipperbang]

Catching up on UC and he seems to struggling with some pronunciations and sounds....drowsy is the best word I can think of.

Not suggesting anything but he really does sound different to me.

He has Parkinson’s.

Yes, he has been diagnosed with Parkinson's.

Yes Parkinsons

He was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease recentish.
It's a progressive condition.

You could easily find out from Google he's got Parkinson's instead of starting a MN thread. Were you accusing him of being drunk?

I didnt know about the Parkinsons, I didnt google it because it seened ghoulish to do so,

My Aunt recently passed due to Parkinsons, it didnt cross my mind as her sypmtoms didnt affect her speech until very late on.

Absolutely not

I asked a question, and there is no need to be rude in your response.

Do you not feel any compunction or embarrassment then? (That’s a question. You didn’t ask one.)

A lot of us could find out all sorts from Google without starting a MN thread ... but we would rather start a thread - and why on earth not? No one forces anyone to engage with MN threads.

Fgs mumsnet would cease to exist if we all googled instead of asking on here
