| To be fair, there are many, MANY bad line-readings to choose from on the Secret Garden OBC. Alison Fraser - and I generally love her - has a few real clunkers, the most ridiculous being "that'll give you stomach for your porridge", in which she produces a stream of sounds that bear no relation to anything you'd expect to hear within a thousand miles of the place where it's supposed to be set, and stresses all the wrong syllables. She's far from the only offender, though: basically, nothing on that album that's supposed to sound like a working-class Yorkshire accent is remotely convincing. |
