I never could watch the guy either. Not even waaaaay back when. I was also convinced he was a Kiwi or some shit. That's not a proper accent for anywhere in GB or it at least doesn't sound like one. Is he intentionally trying to speak in a weird way or is that just some special form of speech autism?
I think he's like Judge Doom: A cartoon character disguised as a human.

He sounds kind of like he has a midlands accent, although AFAIK he lives in the north east. I can't say for sure why he does that shit with his inflection at the end of words though. My best guess is he's trying to mask his accent to make him more palatable to burgers. It has the opposite effect of making him sound unbearably smug though. All I know is if I ever heard him speak in person I don't know if I'd be able to keep my hand from moving towards his face at great speed.
Nah dawg, it's because he's ACTING, or at least attempting to. He's an incredibly terrible actor. Look at how he behaves in the anniversary specials. All the weird inflection is him trying to fake emotion (becuz muh angry reviewer schtick) for the camera.

Is he method acting the world's most punchable bobble head or what?

I think he was trying to come up with a trademark and failed.

Nobody in the UK sounds as retarded as this guy, not even the genuinely autistic people I recall from high school.
