	Actors - John Deeks

John Deeks (born May 1, 1951) is a well-known Australian television presenter and voice-over artist for the Seven Network, where he has been working since 1975.

He has acted as announcer on several popular programs making his voice and style highly recognisable, leading to his also being cast as the voice over artist in recreations of game shows in some dramatic works. Since 1984, he is most well-known as the announcer of Australian Wheel of Fortune, on the Seven Network.

For many years Deeks was the announcer who said "Come on Down!" on the Australian version of game show The New Price Is Right, although frequently the program's host Ian Turpie is erroneously named as the person to voice the phrase. In 2005 Shawn Cosgrove voiced the phrase in the most current version of that series. Deeks also briefly hosted Family Feud in 1996, taking over from Rob Brough the same year the show was cancelled. Deeks was also the announcer on game show Man O Man and presented the Tattslotto lottery draw for many years.
