Voice Activared Lift/Elevator in Scotland (Bad Language)

My cousin lived in a  fawncy apartment, whose elevator had a voice that was, I guess, someone from England who had been living in Ireland for a very time.

She lived on the third floor, which was announced as "turd floor". I had a giggle every time.
that's how the Irrish pronounce TH at the beginning of any word....tirty, ( thirty) tree.(three) tought ( thought)...tanks ( thanks) etc
 
The was an old timer who ran a freight elevator in NYC’s garment district who looked and sounded just like the actor Barry Fitzgerald. He was originally from Belfast and if you annoyed him he would say, “I’m callin the peelers on ya.” I found out peelers are cops.
