I was watching lesson in evil and noticed the psychiatrist women voice sounded familiar, it also appeared dubbed so it may not have even been her actual voice, however it sounded very familiar. The same voice used throughout the series when they used a voice on the intercom or radio etc. Has this ever been identified?

There was some talk a long time back about the computer/announcement voices and how it sounded a lot like Linda Darlow's voice, who made 3 different appearances in the show, including as Pete's wife in the Hind-Sight episode.

There has also been speculation that the voice of Sandy (the AI computer) in Human Factor sounds like Ellen Degeneres.

But as far as I know these have never been confirmed.

Sounds like speculation indeed. Ellen Degeneres did not make her debut until 1989.

If it was Linda Darlow it is uncredited. I can't find it on her filmography either.

Personally, I think it was probably just someone in the sound department once they realized that they needed an announcement in certain scenes.

Seems like a waste of money to pay an actor for a few words.

I don't think it's the same voice every time either.
