northernscum Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I get the impression this thread may not contain the same amount of wailing & gnashing of teeth as the Bowie one. In this age of celebrity death hyperbole, I am glad I don't watch watch TV anywhere nearly as much as I used to. I assume the rolling news channels will be filled with teary eyed b-listers giving their emotional 30 second eulogies. Over & over & over...........

Toepoke Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 So despite the slagging Wogan used to give him, old Jimmy Young is still on the go. Ireland will be in mourning for one of their most loyal and patriotic subjects. RIP Sir Terry. It's headline news on RTE, although they refer to him as Mr Wogan.

kumnio Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Sarah Moore, who the hell are you, and why are you on the BBC 1 News? Over a 10 minute tribute on the national news, thats too much. A 77 year old presenter has died, sorry, but who gives a toss apart from his friends and family. National news, honest to fck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoonTheSlope Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 A wifey was interviewed and said that when she first went out with her husband told him she had a confession and said that she wakes up with Wogan every morning, his reply was, "that's ok, so do I" Get a grip of yourselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Bongo Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Im sure he donated his fee (which he never asked for) to charity from around 2007 onwards It was seemingly a nominal sum (about £9000) in 2005 Quite frankly for all the charity work and time he put in and tens of millions he raised he deserved it I repeat that he never asked for or demanded payment Whether he should have refused originally is another thing but as i said it was deserved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil r Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) £1300 an hour adjusted for inflation. Not a bad gig that. Paid for by the BBC mind you so its not as if he was ripping off Pudsey. Still.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-439875/Wogan-celeb-paid-Children-In-Need.html Edited January 31, 2016 by neil r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
