Come on, admit it. You’ve got stuck in a Brian Blessed rut with your TomTom. You love rounding bends and hearing him say things like ‘SCRIVENS! YOU’RE A VERITABLE LUNATIC!!’ etc, etc. Or maybe you’re a Darth Vader type. Perhaps Homer Simpson is more your speed?
Well, I bring you great news, fans of the celebrity Sat Nav voice. Sesame Street’s finest, Bert and Ernie, have been busy in the studio recording. Yes, that’s right. No longer need you ask the burning question: ‘Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?’ Because Bert and Ernie will guide you.
Sesame Street on the TomTom
Of all the Sesame Street characters, I can’t imagine anyone better to accompany you on your journey. After all, the Count wouldn’t be much good: ‘Turn off in one – hahaha – two – hahaha – three – hahaha - yards’. By then, you’d have long missed your turning. Bert and Ernie chatter along to you in a jovial way, keeping you company on those long, boring drives. Their bickering but ultimately adorable interaction will make the journey whizz by. I was extremely excited to watch the video of Bert and Ernie recording in the studio, which you can see below, and I couldn’t wait to bring this brilliant news to everyone! Embrace your inner child!
Of course, you could also embrace your actual child. If you’ve got kids, this is going to make driving an absolute joy. If you’re lucky, they might be so intent on listening to Bert and Ernie that they actually pipe down for a while! This is sure to brighten the mood of the entire car. And I’m sure it hasn’t escaped your notice that we’re about to plunge headlong into the festive season. If you’re anything like Chris Rea, you may well be driving home for Christmas. (Come on, guys! I’m allowed to feature some cheesy music, it’s December!) Lots of relatives to see equals lots of time spent in the car, and you may well have the entire family with you. Bert and Ernie for TomTom will put a big smile on your face.
You can purchase the boys for £7.95 from www.tomtom.com, or visit the direct link at the bottom of the page. They’re available now, or you can check out some of the other celebrity voices on offer. Sesame Street was a massive part of my childhood, and I still laughed my head off at the video. It certainly cheered up my day, so why don’t you bring a little sunshine into your life too? Maybe you can finally answer the age old question of how to get to Sesame Street. Just grab your rubber duckie, and….well, watch out for Ernie’s driving skills.
