In precisely two hours the deadline will pass for you to enter the competition to find the new voice of the speaking clock.
In accordance with trying to be more confident in myself, this evening I pulled out my mobile phone and read the below script and e-mailed it to theoneshow@bbc.co.uk.
I’d encourage you to do the same if ever you have sat in your car or on the toilet pretending you are the speaking clock… It will make you feel good that you’ve had a bash and been one of the 20,000 + who will also be submitting an entry (no professional voice artists or actors are allowed to enter).
