'''The Announcer'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s name tells all, as he serves as an announcer or host wherever one is needed. He doesn't really let his personality show through, so little is known of him as a character, except that he does seem to be eager to do his job. He first appeared in the children's book, and hasn't changed very much since then. He has a pear-shaped body with no visible legs, a long slender neck, and a large black mustache. He always seems to be wearing a [[Fancy Suits|purple suit and tie]] (or, on some occasions, a tuxedo) and monocle. While he rarely makes actual on-screen appearances, his voice, which is earnest and mostly British, is used quite often. He resembles the members of [[The Barbershop Trio]].
