Sorry but if I'd hired him for the well paid voice over I'd tell him to pee off .....................he only had to go in and say his lines - he's simply an ex Dr Who - and not a good one at that!
Sorry Soozy - I was going to let this thread die until I saw your comment.
I think what you heard was a snapshot of a piece of work TB was working on. I'm sure if you were a fly on the wall of any of the hundreds of voiceover sessions done each year you may hear similar types of comments by other V.O artists. Still, glad you found it amusing, that's what I was aiming for.
But, and this is a big but. Tom Baker is one of THE best Dr. Who's of all time (and regularly comes high in polls of favourite Doctors). Along with John Pertwee he is right up there. IMO he pees all over the current Doctor (who amongst my Dr. Who friends is not that popular). Since they rebooted Dr Who, Ecclestone is my fave.
