    Enunciation

    Yes folks forget pronunciation, lets have a crack at enunciation. The art of pronouncing words clearly.

    Sitting navel gazing earlier this evening I heard Mark Sainsbury doing a promo for tomorrow nights Close Up. He said... Tomorrow night we go on a "blow cunt". Swear to God that is what I heard. Of course I now am paying attention and watching the video that went with the words. He again said they were going on a "blow cunt", but this time the video showed what he was actually saying was they were going on a "bloke hunt". Every other word was as clear as a bell.

    Obviously he had not read through that particular promo until it hit the auto cue in front of him, or he would have clearly said "bloke hunt"

    Have you got other examples of a whoopsie moment like this?

    Sainsbury says a lot of words badly. When trying to say something like "Now it's not possible" he'll say "Nar it's not possible" and so on. It's painful, he chews words. He and Campbell are overpaid twats.

    Perhaps the "blowcunt" was deliberate?
    It got your attention...

    (Dame) Susan Devoy used to say 'vunnrable' when the word is 'vulnerable.'
    Most people on TV now do the same.

    I fear poor enunciation as much as new clear weapons.

    One place I read of people would ask the receptionist if Mike Hunt was in the building. She would get on the intercom asking if "anyone had seen my cunt"
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    The difference between spear and spare is lost on many. It's enough to make one feel like a spear prick at a wedding.

    Ditto for ear and air. Many times newsreaders will endeavour to tell me that so and so was ear lifted out of a national park. I don't think so.

    And beer and bare and bear - wouldn't want to mix 'em up, would you??

    And pallet and pellet - wouldn't want to be hit by a missile from a pallet-gun, would you??
