[QUOTE="Sarah, post: 252609, member: 6"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-55669122[/URL] [B]An MP has had his contribution to the House of Commons interrupted for sounding "like a Dalek".[/B] Conservative Scott Mann was speaking via video link in a debate on dentistry services during the pandemic. But a technical problem meant his audio became distorted, leaving his voice far lower than usual. Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans told him: "Scott, you sound like a Dalek and I don't mean that unkindly. There's clearly a communications problem." Their colleague having been likened to one of Dr Who's arch-enemies, MPs on both sides of the socially distanced House laughed, as Mr Mann, who represents North Cornwall, was left to tweak his equipment.
