    Looking at his CV (http://www.vocalpoint.net/narration/mvo/) is like staring at the hardest hard thing you can think of.

    But his photo gives the game away that he's just a big soft poof.

    For me its his slang that I find amusing-


    'Giving it legs'-- to run off from the police

    'Monkeying' -Trying to climb over an object to evade police

    etc etc etc

      I like it when they focus on the police in Belfast, driving around in their armoured jeeps and being constantly pelted with bricks and fireworks. It's quite frightening, really.

        Looks like they are lacking a decent Jock vocal resource. Might give that a try. Must be better than this IT malarkey

          Don't know why I know that.

          He was also in the excellent HBO series Rome

          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            They don't seem too discouraged, judging by last night's BBC offering in the genre.

              For your average chavver/chavette the heady mix of cheap booze, cold air, blue falshing lights and a Sky camera is all too much. They think it could be a chance to become the new Jade Goody/Lotto lout and out come the breasts/fists/four letter words.
