I listed Andrews. I thought of Grant, but I didn't think his voice was so unusual, and figured the accent would mean nothing to our British Ledgies. Guess I was wrong.

I'm sure there's a ton of others from across the pond, though.

Not British, but I just thought of:

I guess that makes more sense than reading it as Carol's name listed twice.

Nevermind.

Stockard Channing. She's been doing a lot of voiceover work for commericals in the past few years.

And Dee Dee Cohn from Grease and Benson.

Also, Aundra whatever (Mrs. Roper). She was hilarious in the movie Best Friends.

Which reminds me, Burt Reynolds also. (Spit out the damned gum.)

Oops... sorry love.. missed your Julie mention. As for Hugh. It;s not so much his accent but how he talks. Hard to explain really buy I know his voice right away.

I'm sure there are tons of others too but my mind has gone blank right now

Default Mishter Bond..
Anybody heard of Sean Connery???

I'm not a fan of his acting but he's got the most unique and recognisable voice in cinema IMO.

She looked gorgeous from '86-'95, then the plastic surgery really took it's toll. I still think her voice is amongst the sexiest I've ever heard and Something Wild and Working Girl are two of my favorite movies. Something Wild, especially.

I always thought she was pretty too, until one day I looked at her and did a double take. She's become a poster child for that awful plastic surgery website.

Nope, sorry, she doesn't do it for me. But I commend her for doing the bra & panty scene in the movie. Her body looked real.

I always thought Madeline Kahn had a very distinctive voice and she really knew how to use it.

Oh I just thought of another one. Sorry if it's been mentioned already but Blythe Danner's voice is extremely recognizable. I just love it!!
