<<video removed>>
I came across this on my usual route to school - I heard Celia Drummond announce
'This station is Marble Arch. Exit here for Oxford Street. Customers for the intersection between Oxford Street and Regent Street, please remain on this train and alight at Oxford Circus. This is a Central Line train, terminating at Epping'
So I decided to film and record the announcement for the approach to Bond Street. In my opinion, I feel that the announcements are quieter than the current ones (I think these ones are being trialled or something), but the announcements are more sophisticated - with the addition of more 'Exit here for' announcements.

My first instinct was that this is trialling, but I heard Celia announce 'This is Marble Arch...' too! So I'm not quite sure if it is! Hopefully these announcements aren't only trials. Fingers crossed

It's a shame these new announcements are the slower, less energetic type of Celia, like the new ones on the Northern Line, instead of the original fast, sharp and energetic type that the 95 stock originally came with.

Would guess that these are the announcements which will match the new dmis which will be installed on the trains?

Has she gone all American? Intersection rather than junction?

I thought the central line announcer was Sonia.

This is a fake clip as OP has revealed on another forum.
No DVA upgrade expected until at least 2019, ready for the 2020 DDA regulations cut off date. This is due to it being very expensive to change the announcements supposedly.

The forum staff take a dim view of childish concoctions such as this. Thread locked.
