bingo caller

Draws and announces

A bingo caller is the person who announces the numbers drawn during a game of bingo, typically calling them out in a distinctive rhythmic patter.

In British bingo halls, callers traditionally use rhyming slang for numbers: "two fat ladies" for 88, "legs eleven" for 11.

The role requires a clear voice and ability to maintain energy throughout a session.
