Cyril Frederick "Bob" Danvers-Walker (11 October 1906 – 17 May 1990) was a British radio and newsreel announcer best known as the offscreen voice of Pathé News cinema newsreels during World War II and for many years afterwards. His voice was described as "clear, fruity and rich, with just the suggestion of raffishness". Kenneth Branagh has stated that he was consciously imitating Danvers-Walker's "perky tone" in a cod "newsreel" segment in his 2000 film Love's Labour's Lost.
