Let Homer Simpson be your sat nav co-pilot

By Andy Dawson

If you’re a TomTom sat nav user who has gotten bored with the voice that guides you here there and everywhere and are looking for something new, you might have come to the right place.

How do you fancy being directed and cajoled along your route by a hysterical, pig-ignorant but ultimately loveable idiot from one of America’s most famous families? No, it isn’t George W. Bush, but Homer Simpson, and his voice is now available for you to download from the TomTom website, along with voice samples. Apparently, quotes from the great man will include: “Take the third right. We might find an ice cream truck! Mmm…ice cream.”

Crappy unofficial versions of Homer and practically every other notable celeb are out there on the net if you know where to look, but this one (which will cost you £7.95 by the way) is your actual, genuine Homer, as voiced by the mighty Dan Castellaneta.

Of course, there’s every chance that you’ll end up nose-down in a ditch or be directed into a burning fireworks factory, but hey, that’s all part of Homer’s charm. Woo hoo!
