Sigourney Weaver has revealed that she cannot stand robot voices.

The actress, who plays the Ship's Computer in new Pixar animation WALL-E, said machine-style speech drives her mad.

She told Teletext: "Those sat-nav voices that you hear in your car enrage me.

"I want one of those British ones with John Cleese's voice, who shouts at the driver, and who says 'Turn left, you imbecile, turn b***** left!'"

She added: "Now that, that you could b***** well laugh at!"
