Connery tops sexiest voice poll

Sir Sean Connery has the sexiest male voice in showbusiness, according to a poll today.

Singer Robbie Williams came second in the survey, after the former Bond star, followed by Welsh crooner Tom Jones.

Broadcaster Mariella Frostrup is top of the women's list, with actress Joanna Lumley in second place.

Radio 1 breakfast DJ Chris Moyles is fourth in the men's survey, while England footballer David Beckham and TV chat show host Jonathan Ross, who are not normally known for their sexy voices, also made it into the top six.

More than 1,000 people voted in the poll for Yahoo! Messenger.

Spokesman Darren Cairns said the results were a vote for the more mature voice.

He said: "It seems it's not what you say, it's the way you say it, and according to these results the more mature often say it considerably better.
"Sean Connery, the sexiest voice in UK showbiz, still has a licence to thrill with his voice."
