Post by: CLKD on January 31, 2016, 10:01:05 AM: I was wondering during the week how Sir Terry was â€¦â€¦.. having missed Children in Need last November, not much had been mentioned in the media since. Brian Darcy was in tears during his memories, talking about his close friendship with Terry and Lady Helen.

Post by: Katejo on January 31, 2016, 10:39:22 AM: Yes so sad! He has been around as an entertainer for virtually my whole life. I heard the news just a few minutes ago. I had been aware that he missed Children in Need in 2015 but didn't know how serious it was. :(

RIP Terry. DGx

I tell you what - the music on Radio2 this morning has been great â€¦â€¦â€¦ ::)

Post by: CLKD on February 01, 2016, 05:22:55 PM: The 1 Show have a tribute later â€¦â€¦..

Presenters on the whole this morning were quite chipper - Jeremy Vine however, was making a real meal of it, we don't often listen to him anyway but we switched off â€¦â€¦â€¦.. :-\

Post by: SadLynda on February 02, 2016, 10:55:20 AM: very sad, listened to Wogan since I was child as Mum used to listen to him every day. I was a 'TOG' I am wearing my TOG Sweatshirt today. Met Deadlycote a couple of times doing the Quiz Nights.

Steve Wrights tribute is today I think.
