Surprising Voice

I just finished listening to a radio adaptation of “Busman's honeymoon”, one of a series of adaptations with Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter Wimsey and Sarah Badel as Harriet Vane. I love the stories, and I enjoy listening to the radio dramatizations. I’ve listened to them all more than once, so I was surprised, catching just the last part of the credits properly to hear the announcer say: “Second removal man - Alex Jennings”. I usually recognise the voice when I hear it, but not this time. Not surprising really, as he only had a couple of lines, and it was some serious character acting. Deep voice and strong accent. I listened to the episode again, just to actually hear it. And I did hear the second removal man.
