It's a crap voice with an accent that grates.
Those suggesting Sarah Millican is a comedian rather than a comedienne have obvioulsly never seen any good comedy. She's neither, whatever corner of PC one inhabits. I have a particular affection for Lancashire accents.so not a snobby prejudice, just not keen on grating voices. |

Added to that Alan Sugar is a common little prick who can't speak English either. He really mangles it. On the other hand, I admire his ability to make pots of money.

Katie or her voice doesn't irritate me at all, yet Sarah Millican's really grates on me. Another poster said they are from different areas, Sunderland and South Shields and I can tell the difference.

It's not the accent, it's the screeching. She must frighten animals and small children.
Tone it down a bit and she would be ok. |

Katie really showed her nasty side. She seemed outraged that her perfect record was tarnished and got really personal.
Perfect editing to keep golden girl Roisin as the people's champion. |

People complaining about a person's accent. Lovely.
Grow up. |

Not fussed about her voice, but she's extremely irritating as a person.

If you find her hard to listen to, have a re-watch of Series 8, paying particular close attention to the candidate called Jenna.

She isn't very nice. It is not just her voice. Quite a smug lady as well. Very offputting

Aaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!
Every week I tune in, I'm primed and ready for another week of action and antics but as soon as I hear her voice it's like someone scratching their nails down a chalkboard! I hope this doesn't come across as prejudice in any way (cos she's from up North) but as (patronising and cliched as this may sound) she actually does appear to be a really nice girl but every time she speaks all I see and hear is that God awful er "comedienne" Sarah Millican. Also, the silly faces she pulls when she's pipped at being PM make me want to stick my fingers down my throat as well. She's nice but that's all in my opinion. Her voice just kills me lol.... where is she from ?

Nothing wrong with her accent, Sunderland btw. But she has a very nasty side to her. She bigg'd up her massive savings on the oil, wow, and failed to mention the crap negotiation on the sink, and the farce that was "rope gate". With foresight had she got £20 off for the sink and not screwed up the rope, the team would of won. And she mentions her great sales, but forgets to mention the £19 tickets she was in the process of selling, admittedly it was the customers who had trouble understanding her, if I remember correctly it was Daniel that had to step in and confirm it was £90 a ticket.

Why is this even an issue with some people? It's a regional accent. Sometimes I struggle to catch particular words she says, but I think she actually speaks pretty clearly and I don't have a big problem understanding her. You might as well judge people on the colour of their skin, and that's not exactly a discussion we want to have, is it? Quote:

I was okay with the way she chose to defend herself to a large extent - deflecting blame and turning on teammates is standard boardroom practice - but I did feel that she made some of her attacks on Daniel more personal than they needed to be. Mark has attacked him more often, but he's generally kept it at the level of disputing Daniel's (lack of) skills despite their personal animosity. There seemed to be more of an edge to Katie's attacks, as if she was personally affronted to have been brought in and I definitely got the vibe that she views Daniel as beneath her. (Okay, she's right in terms of their ability in this process, but there are ways to say it. Attack the deed, not the doer.) Having said that, I doubt Sugar will count it against her. He'd much rather see someone with a bit of spark who will defend their corner than someone who just sits there being nice to everyone but ineffectual. I have to say I'd agree with him. Business isn't about making enemies, but to get things done more often that not you have to have a little conflict to make everyone push that little bit harder. |

However plenty of people do find her funny and show it by paying to see her on tour. So to say she isn't a comedian is nonsense. |

Not bothered about her accent but her behaviour this week did put me off her big time to be honest. She should have held her hands up for the rope cock up along with Mark and both of them should have said they'd agreed with Felipe and Dan about the skeleton. The way she, in particular, ranted and raved about the skeleton like she had no clue what happened was so annoying. As was her u turn on Dan.
I think she believes that Mark has her back so to speak when in reality he will turn on her as soon as he spots a chance. |

^^ Yep, she was fawning over Daniel in the boardroom, when they thought they had a very good chance of winning the task. But soon as he said she'd be coming back she jumped on him. The in the cafe was lashing out at him big style, in fact she displayed all the traits, she's claimed to hate from Daniel.

It's not so much her voice as that conk. Biggest skislope the apprentice has seen for a while.
I'm joshing, she's a lovely girl. Has anyone from the north east ever won the apprentice? |

It's not her voice that irritates me, it's her attitude.
