A survey of 1,000 motorists by the motoring website Motors.co.uk has revealed the most popular satnav voices to direct you to your destination. While some are performed by the people themselves, some of the voices have been provided by impersonators. Either way, these top 5 are sure to provide you with a laugh.
1. Brian Blessed
From his role as Vultan in the 1980 film Flash Gordon, Brian Blessed can be uploaded onto your satnav: ‘Drive, Hawkmen, drive!’ he shouts, once you have reached your destination he says ‘Gordon’s arrived!’
2. Homer Simpson
Available for your TomTom you could end every journey with: ‘Woohoo! You have reached your destination’
3. KITT

4. Darth Vader
Will you follow the Dark Side? If the answer is yes, you will be told: ‘Turn around when possible. I find your lack of faith disturbing. Then, take the third left, sense your way’.
