They found that women think that men with deep, booming voices are more muscular and attractive, and have hairier chests than their higher voiced counterparts.

The research at the University of Nottingham was designed to explore the links between sexual attraction and vocal pitch.

These girls at the University of Nottingham would prefer Roger Moore to Alan Ball any day.

Dr Sarah Collins of the Behavioural Ecology Research Group recorded the voices of thirty four men aged between eighteen and thirty.

She then asked women to rate their attractiveness, age, weight and height.

The women almost universally agreed that they thought the deepest voices belonged to the sexiest men.

However, there is hope for those who can't get quite as low as Barry White. The women's idea of what the men looked like was always wrong!
