Used Mornington Crescent station for the first time in years today, and
was disappointed to find that the mechanical voice doesn't know the
difference between 'will' and 'shall', and now intones "The next lift
shall be the one to the right."

In my experience this error is usually made by people who want to look
better at grammar than they are, and who are prone to saying "whom"
instead of "who" on every occasion.
