Its all to do with the dopler effect and the difference between radio waves used by terestrial TV and the satellite broadcast used by Sky, so its really the same advert with the same voices, but the pitch of the voices has changed very slightly*

The original actors had got too well known and were starting to command higher and higher fees for their work. So Halfords PR firm brought in some new talent with more enthusiasm for the roles and a lower fee.

Times are tight for everyone you see

Though watching two TV’s fed through two different sources, like satellite and a digi box does cause quite a cool 1-3 second delayed echo from one tv and another

I like to sneek the Xfactor on the aerial TV in the bedroom and charge into the living room and lay a bet on with the wife just before they announce the result
