Nature’s Deadly Journeys – showing this week on Nat Geo Wild

January 22, 2011

I recently narrated these two fascinating documentary programmes for National Geographic Channel UK (see news item). Since completion, they’ve been popping in and out of the schedule over the last few weeks with such alarming unpredictability that they returned last weekend to the listings for their premiere and I ended up missing them both!

New programmes for the New Year – Mike Cooper voices “Nature’s Deadly Journeys” for National Geographic Channel

December 29, 2010

Bin there, done that. Mike Cooper: Voiceover on Wheels.

November 30, 2010

I recently narrated a series of videos for Kent-based Alpha Bin Care. Granted, looking after wheelie bins may not be everyone’s idea of glamour, but someone needs to do it – and these guys really know their field, describing themselves as “experts in the area of wheeled bin cleaning and maintenance services”. Here’s an example [...]
