I really don't know why Apple have replaced the UK male Siri voice.

This new voice sounds like, well, a whimp. Sounds like he was bullied at school, rushes his words and seems nervous lol.

Now the old voice was great, a bit Cary Grant, but my wife used to love it LOL couldn't they have at least left the old voice in and made it an option.

How about a Sean Connery voice? That would be quite cheerio, you know?

Or Sean Bean, with a hint of menace.


You mean this guy?! He doesn't say a lot of words.

I would like Vicky Pollard's voice.....

When Siri is taking taking time to think of a reply, she can just go, 'yea but, no but, yea but....'
