BBC continuity announcers who don't pronounce their T's.
The BBC for appointing such continuity announcers.
Both the BBC and their continuity announcers for deliberately and explicitly changing their natural and learnt pronunciation and diction to represent a view that standards of speech are no longer as important as they were.
They may believe it to be more inclusive and representative, and rail against the divisiveness of class and status, but all it does is reduce standards and lower expectations.
Scumbags who continue to dump their copious sacks of dirty, scuzzy clothing, 1980's videos and Covid ridden, broken, kids toys and books outside closed charity shops. In the rain.
Danny Dyer, the poor man's Ray Winstone, trailing his shitty game show which appears to be called "The Waw"
These actors have developed a dialect which is uniquely their own. As someone who was born in SE London and at least 4 generations family are/were Londoners I really can’t place where you can grow up speak like that, none of my relatives do. It’s embarrassing and cringing to listen to, I can only think it’s an act that’s got out of hand.

One of the VP commentators doesn’t say his ‘th’s properly. “Frow in to Charlton”, “They broke frough” etc. We all get lazy from time to time but surely when you’re broadcasting it’s not too much to ask to make the effort.

Used to live round the corner from Roman Road Market in Bow, large amount of traders and locals all spoke with that over the top Dyer/Winstone accent.

Agree, it's Essex trying too hard.
I love accents and the variety we have in this country, I even started to quite like Brummie after working there for six months. But the dyer thing comes across as totally fake.

Alex Scott, who seems to be everywhere now, never finishes her words. Only 25 letters in her alphabet, the g is completely missin.

Yeah he does that too. “Charlton brin the ball forward”, “Pratley tidies thins up” etc.
BT sport (maybe sky too) have started doing this thing where they tell you the substitution a couple minutes before it actually happens. Let me find out for myself ffs!

Or they say it looks like a sub is coming on, cut to the touchline and the bloke is stripped off ready to come on the pitch. Wow what great foresight.
Almost certainly mentioned this before on the thread, but as we are back to pronunciation, announcers and presenters saying skedules in stead of schedules.
When I was still trying to impress the woman who is now Mrs Carter we had gone for a bite for lunch at a Chatham pub. They had served me a pint of Stella that was short. Them and me have previous for this, they would serve it just short I'm positive to entice an argument and it wasn't one of those continental glasses that allows for head.
Anyway they did this trick and me not wanting to come across as a raving madman I didnt create, not at first anyway.
When Mrs Carter went to the toilet I did too and stuck my index finger up my arse, picked the pint of Stella up went to the bar and called the barman, the shylock pourer, and with my finger on the rim of the glass asked him to smell it as it was off. He took a deep sniff and his face screwed up, loudly announced that the Stella was off and that he'd give me a refund or another pint of my choosing
Hmmmm........a new twist in the fingernail-gate story?!?
When you have a problem activating a procedure on a computer and you put in a Google search asking how to go about resolving it. Google may well come up with several alternatives......however, none of them match your page with the information being shown. Such as, go to this or that and click on this or that......but the links are either not there or an entirely different layout!!!😤😤😤
