Which tyre?

Hi,
I've read a few posts regarding good touring tyres, I was wondering if anyone had any info regarding fast tyres to use touring. I'm looking at travelling long distances each day and want something that rolls really well. I will have panniers, but I'm going fairly light. I'm guessing the trade-off is comfort, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience/advice regarding different options - looking at road use only. Are slicks a good/bad idea?
Thanks for comments in advance...

Someone like yer gran is already 18kg lighter than me, so can probably get away with the same tyres I run on my road bike on a fully laden expedition bike! I have to use something a bit wider - 32mm Schwalbe Marathon Supreme for me.

Planet X are doing the Voyager Hyper 37mm version at the moment at the same price: http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.uk/i/q/TYV ... lding_tyre but be warned- unusually they are generously sized, my 35mms measure 36mm.
