Guys I only caught it very briefly the other day (and not living in the capital - don't listen very often) but I swear Julian was the voice on a BA advert on Capital Radio the other day. Can anyone verify?

I have heard that BA ad and thought so too Jools.

I am also wondering if he is the voice of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes radio ad at the moment, but it is very short, so can't confirm it. It may just be voices in my head of course!!

I must confess I haven't heard the BA ad but I do know for a fact that Art Malik is doing the tv voiceover.
Our local station doesn't carry many national ads and certainly not Kellog's ones!

It's not on his agent's CV, which is a shame.

I'm also now convinced he's doing 'crunchy nut cornflakes' again on capital..any chance anyone can record it?

Yes, I heard him again Jools on the Crunchy Nut Cornflakes ads on my local radio station. They are the ones that start 'We are in the grip of an epidemic....' Tricky to record though .....

Update on the 'Crunchy Nut Cornflakes' front - I'm sure Julian is doing the new radio ads which consist of directions to the A4 !?! Unfortunately I haven't understood the sense of the ads as I've been too busy checking out the voice.

Anyone else heard them?

Yes it is definitely JRT on the cornflake ads. Heard the latest on my local radio station, Gemini. Diffficult to record though as you never know when they are going to pop up!

I have the radio on all of the time, but I've not yet heard it.

Whilst driving round the M25 today, I heard a new BA advert on Capital with Julian doing the voiceover.

It was advertising BA fares for ski destinations so he was reading out the airports and prices - and the last one he said was 'Zurich from £34.' :o

It made me think of Green Wing and Guy, so I was cackling away to myself (fortunately there was no one in the car with me).

Brightened my day up, anyway. :P

I thought it was Julian's voice on the television ad for crunchy nut cornflakes, no doubt about it.

I thought 3 weeks away would cure me of my little obsession, but no. Just leaving Heathrow on Fri pm I put the radio on and yes, you guessed it, the dulcet tones advertising BA wafted out of the speakers.

When will this madness end? when will we be free?

I can vouch for checking in online - definitely saves lots of time.

Heard this advert. Stopped myself from shouting "it's Julian!" to find my children looking at me expectantly as they had recognised his voice.

The next advert? Barclaycard!
