I've been meaning to ask for a while now and came to cf when nobody else knew. In the queue for nemesis at Alton Towers, is it Tom Baker reading out the story? Sure sounded like it but I wasn't sure. :?

Hello, welcome to the site.

It is indeed Tom Baker who read the Nemesis story.

Furie has already answered the question but yeah, it's read by Tom Baker. It fits in really well with the soundtrack.
Oh and welcome to the site. :)

Oblivion Man is Renny Krupinski... And he is awesome...

As in Tom Baker... 'Nobody knows where it came from, nobody know what it wants... There are theories... And then there is the legend...' <3 <3

That NEMESIS shouty jingle completely ruins the atmosphere for me, the theming gets you in the 'zone' and then you get screamed at by someone who sounds like tim westwood (I didn't give his name capitals cos he's annoying).

Seeing as coasterC's question has been swiftly answered, I'm going to ask a similar, yet stupid, question to save starting a new topic. I hope that's ok.

Does Tobin Bell (great surname) do the voice for Jigsaw on Saw: Da Ride at Thorpe Park? I know a voice changer thing is used for Jigsaw in the films but for authenticity reasons, I'm rather curious.

^I'm not sure, but I do know that Tobin Bell did the voice of Jigsaw in the Saw Video Game, which would lead me to believe that he'd be quite easy to get hold of.

Nope it wasn't Tobin Bell who did Jigsaws voice on the ride. You can tell the voice it quite different and the effect to make anyone's voice sound like Jigsaws can be done quite easily on free audio software.
So it's not Tobin but someone else (don't know who) who provided the voice of Jigsaw for the ride.

^^^ No. Its another actors voice for Saw. When you hear it enough you can tell its an english man putting on an american accent, thats then changed.

Honest to god, if you don't spend enough time over your posts to even work out if you've hit the exclamation mark not the ¬ key, you obviously haven't spent enough time considering whether your post is contributing anything.

(Yes I see the irony that I'm not contributing either. I tried to ignore it all, I really did.)

I wonder why tobin didnt do it, that would have rocked!! He's great in the movies, but the ride videos sounded kind of stupid :p And very loud too. Like those goddamn shotguns..........

I believe the awful voice-overs in the station are the voice of Andy Hine, president of the RCCGB.

Andy Hine?? Cool. They should upgrade Saw each year and make improvements.......... like replacing Hine's voice with Bell's. And losing the guns.
