[@BBCR2Fails]

Couldn't agree more. Haha. I remember when Wrighty did his first ever 'hands up' - it was about 10 minutes into one of his shows in late 1982 or maybe early 1983... I have the recording somewhere...

@@BBCR2Fails its a sad week next week for steve wrights last weeks of shows in the afternoon can you please tell me ever steve going to another radio station please let me know if thats wright ( bbc northfolk)

[@athomp6649]

Good morning what radio 2 should have done his gave the show to tim smith or janey keep it in steves wright family can you tell me why ant mills on next week its oj borg ?

[@mikehodgkiss9351]

@@BBCR2Fails I'd love to listen. Have u also go any full radio 2 shows of his from years ago?

[@BBCR2Fails]

@@athomp6649 Unfortunately the controller of Radio 2 wants to bring the average age of listeners down. Replacing Steve with Tim or Janey (even though both of them had both hosted their OWN shows on BBC Radio 2 before joining The Big Show in 1999 - so clearly they're capable) wouldn't help reach that target demographic. // On that note, Janey used to be the regular cover presenter for SW Sunday Love Songs... I wonder if she'll ever reprise the role now that she won't be on SWITA Tuesdays and Thursdays anymore... She was fantastic at it, SO much better and fresher than Gaby Roslin, Anneka Rice or Nicki Chappers...

[@zillionairemark]

The afternoons (at Radio2) will never be the same..terrible decision by Helen Thomas 💩

[@DJDeryn]

Loved the show Steve

[@gavinthorburn5385]

Never be another like him ever

[@philipjarrett3487]

RIP Steve Wright (1954-2024)😢

[@BBCR2Fails]

Cheers for these!

[@MrBerksboy]

He was that good that listeners would have followed him to another station, not loyal to the BBC but to Steve and now this void is filled with Scott Mills, radio off for two hours until Sara Cox comes on, I would have preferred she took over from Steve but still broadcast for three hours.

[@athomp6649]

Do you know what station steve going to if any please reply back

[@chrisrobey9937]

The guvnor of radio, there's not many good left rip sw
