I have been thinking about this . I have my Alexa device read one of my kindle books each night but given the choice of a voice I would love Kirsty Young or Ken Bruce.
By the wy I am loveing Kirsty's podcasts called " Young Again " on BBC sounds .

I like Jason Isaacs reading audio books (currently listening to him reading Kate Atkinson's Big Sky), but the one guaranteed to send me to sleep is Greg Jenner on the history podcast You're Dead to Me - I never get to the end of any episode!

Scribbles. I’m another Ray Clark fan, but not sure if he’d lull me to sleep. I would choose Ken Stott.

I like audio books off BBC sounds and Richard E Grant is reading the Wombles, perfect for a good night's sleep
