Voice of 'See it, Say it, Sorted' stars in play

The train driver who voiced the "See it, Say it, Sorted" police transport announcement is using his career expertise in a play he is directing and starring in.

Oliver Fosker, 41, from Woodbridge, Suffolk, is a Greater Anglia train driver and the voice of the well-known phrase played at stations and on services in East Anglia.

Since Thursday, he has starred in The Railway Children at The Seckford Theatre in Woodbridge, with its final show on Saturday.

He is also the director and said his knowledge of trains had helped with the show.

"I'm finally getting to put my railway experience into something I enjoy on the stage; it's brilliant," he said.

"[My job] helps with knowing the right way of moving trains and being able to put them into action on stage."

Mr Fosker, who plays the father, and Mr Szezcpanskey, said a huge amount of effort had been put into the show.

"It's such a wonderful feeling to see everything come together now," he added.

Mr Fosker started his railway career almost 20 years ago as a conductor in Ipswich before he became a train driver in 2011.

More recently, he was one of two winners to become the voice of the "See it, Say it, Sorted" campaign run by British Transport Police to promote safety on the railways.

"One was a lady out in the west in Cambridgeshire, and I won on this side," he said.

"I went to London and recorded the tracks.

"There's about 10 tracks of me that go around on the stations in the East Anglia area."

He added that he had now heard himself "quite a lot" while at work.

"It's such a weird feeling that you pull into somewhere like Manea in the Cambridgeshire Fens, and suddenly there's my voice. It's wonderful."

Mr Fosker is part of the Company of Four theatre group based in Woodbridge that he joined at six years old.

Some of the group have recognised his voice on the trains before, which is played across a number of Greater Anglia stations.

"It's lovely when people suddenly realise, 'Oh hang on, I know him, I know that voice'," he added.

Mr Fosker said he was "immensely proud" of the whole team behind The Railway Children and said it was a "feel good" production.
