Good visuals, but who coached the narrator?

"This is a short video, only about 30 minutes, and it gives a condensed overview of Lisbon. While it does whet the appetite and remind me of the time I lived in Portugal, I wonder who taught the narrator how to pronounce the Portuguese names for places and things. This is so common with well-intentioned people who enjoy travel but who have no ear for foreign languages. His pronunciation of Alfama and fado made me giggle as I tried to figure out what he was saying. All that said Lisbon is a beautiful city and the Portuguese are wonderful people, just don't try to pronounce anything the way the narrator does and you'll be OK."
Eu não desfrutei este.

"This DVD doesn't satisfy you if you once have visited to Lisbon.
Although its title is Lisbon, it has few places to visit and I can't get interesting enough information for traveling there again.
Maybe you can choose another one which will let you smile.
Try to search it!
Boa noite!
