Mine is Glen Tilbrook (Squeeze), Robert Johnson (blues musician) and Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby. Not his normal voice.

How on earth has no one mentioned Antonio Banderas?! That man could read the back of a cornflake packet to me and I’d melt.

Tamsin Greig
Jim Lee R4 continuity and occasional Shipping Forecast reader.
My husband. He does guided tours and I play his tapes if he's ever away for very long as they seem more intimate than phone calls especially as we're over 70 and slightly hard of hearing,Smile though we did used to have very lengthy phone chats in the 1960/70's when apart due to different places for further education.

That's wonderful - reminds of the lady who went to Embankment station to listen to her late husband's voice as he was he had announced 'Mind the Gap' there for many years.
I like Tamsin Grieg too!
