In this episode of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Christopher Kent joins Sam and Mark to talk about how to sound luxurious but at a right old pace, a cheeky read for a saucy doc, words that just don't want to come out right, and how you can't say no to a spoon bending!
Our VO question this week is all about the best notes a voice director can give to a voice actor.

Script 1
In the post war years, British cinema boomed with a combination of sentimental romances… and patriotic war films.
But by the late 1960s… the domestic movie industry was in trouble; film production had halved, and over 3,000 cinemas had closed.
Auditoria were becoming bingo halls, and television was now the main source of entertainment, with millions of viewers tuning into soap operas… variety shows… and even DIY.
But TV wasn’t satisfying everyone.
