Default Funny noise on Discworld Noir

When playing Discworld Noir for the 2nd time on PS1, I noticed that when I went to places on the map, a weird high-pitched voice said something along the lines of 'Pointio!' and i was wondering if anyone else has heard that.

I always thought that Discworld Noir was the sequel of Discworld 1

OKay, your post was unhelpful.

Anyways, I barely recall this, but I think you triggered an easter egg that I was never able to get working on the PC version. Supposively it's supposed to be an elf saying that. I don't really know anything else about it though, sorry.

It's a unused line from an elf character(?) saying "Righty-ho!". Pratchett apparently found it hilarious so it crept in as an easter egg, or so I heard.

I can't remember exactly how you activate it, but I think you have to click all four corners of the map, or something along those lines. Personally I didn't find it worth the effort, but I might just be a grumpy bastard.
