hi @George792228

What do you use to listen to SKy - TV, Soundbar or Av system ?

Which ever may I suggest you check & possibly change the setting in

Home - Settings - Setup - Audio Visual
Digital audio output HDMI
to Normal

Distorted speech often comes from channels using 5.1 sound and the Sound system used being unable to handle the centre channel (deffective speaker or similar) - setting the above to Normal means you only get 2.0 sound
