Also, why would we have assumed he was dead?
I don't think any of us actually thought he sat there reading out the time whenever anyone called up. We knew it was a recording ;)

Because if you knew him, and knew he was dead
hearing his voice might scare the muffins out of you.
If you somehow rang it by accident or forgot it was a recording...?
