Just burst into tears hearing this. Im sure i'm not the only one that dearly misses Terry Wogan on the radio

[@Loverboy19691]

No, you'er not alone Alycia. I've not listened to Radio 2 in the mornings since Terry left in December 2009. I totally refused to listen to that annoying Chris Evans.

@@Loverboy19691 have just re-listened to our dear Terry. Tears are still shed.

[@Loverboy19691]

@@suestone6679 2021, I'm still listening to our Terry.

[@philco7044]

Gone but NEVER forgotten , how blessed we are to have shared Sir Terry’s companionship . Just listened to this while preparing the Sunday Roast crying into me stuffing at the end .

[@EmmaCohen91]

10 years ago today, this final breakfast show aired. It is still as funny now as it was then and that's before you get anywhere near the Janet and John story!! There were many deaths in 2016, but only two really had an effect on me and Sir Terry was one of them. There will truly never be anyone like him ever again and there will never be a radio show like his, ever again. You were truly one of a kind, dear Sir and I - like so many others - will miss you forever. X

[@kanabeanz]

Exactly my sentiments...no one on Radio has matched his wit and intellect.

[@keepgoing1973]

Imagine how Wogan would make us feel better during the covid-19 pandemic

[@susanjones9024]

Really miss this guy. Was a part of my life for so many years. Still think about you Terry xx

[@fluorosco]

Me too Just been listening to Janet and John Just brilliant

[@coachnut1]

Never been anything as good again - 2020 and he can still make me cry xx

[@pug2052]

First Terry and more recently Steve wright rest in peace 2 voices I cherish and will never forget

[@EmmaCohen91]

I'm still listening to this in 2020 ♥️

[@kevinbutcher7027]

Thank you Terry. You were the sound track to my life, laughter and friendship in abundance, from the school run to my 50th Birthday. The BBC should broadcast your shows every day, the traffic jams are probably still occurring so no-one would notice the difference.

[@EmmaCohen91]

I’m not at all ashamed to tell you that I’ve listened to this video 6 times in the last couple of weeks. In the year that he would have been 81, I feel like he should be celebrated♥️ Nearly four years down the line and your passing is no easier to comprehend than it was on 31st January 2016. That year took a lot of people, but two of them truly affected me. Sir Terry was one of them. I’ll miss you forever and ever ♾ A proud Tyg (Terry’s Young Geezers and Gals)

[@paulloughlin6273]

The perfect broadcaster. He made it seem effortless. A complete natural and always capable of blending fun. And Laugher with great music. Wake up to wogan was like tuning in to a friend. Knowing that you’d feel better having listened. A total genius at work. The master of radio broadcast

[@karenf1001]

Miss Sir Terry SO MUCH 😭 RIP my friend 😘

[@michellebray-warner3604]

Thank you. I miss him so much. Listening to him and his show help with my depression.

[@TRUMPER007]

Our Togmeister - miss him big time! RIP Sir Terry Wogan.

[@nelsonsouthsider3005]

I’m away for a few days and I’ve just got the iPad out and was thinking about holidays as a child radio on Terry wogan pure heaven so I typed his name and here I am in heaven once again

[@RandomRadioJottings]

Thank you Geoff. Really pleased you enjoyed this. I've also uploaded a number of Terry's breakfast show podcasts. Andy W

[@Rachel-wp1yz]

Ahhh... Listening to this in 2023. Still miss you, Terry... Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana. love from a faithful TYG... Now a TOG xx

[@ronniehifi]

I remember we had snow on this day so I was lucky enough to be off work and be able to listen to the whole snow.

[@PMH150960]

A true broadcasting great if not the very best. The connection with his audience has never been surpassed . Streets ahead of what is available today

[@gingermongoose3325]

Cried at the time - just bawled my eyes out again - RIP Terry

[@MsVanorak]

i held on until he played Stardust.

[@colindowd9756]

Yes , this really needs to stay online! Please BBC will you let Utube leave tis clip up online as it's sadly, one of our TOG's last bastions of recluse !

[@timerrington9276]

Greatly missed to this day, I literally grew up listening and watching Terry, he was unique. Its such a shame that the BBC can't make his archived shows available, would love to hear them again driving to work

[@crooty9]

I listened to this in my car driving to work. I'll never forget it, there was snow everywhere and it took me three hours to get to work when it normally took 45 minutes. I was at a standstill on the A12 and I remember welling up a little bit when he read that final piece and then played the party's over. Thank you so much for uploading this, great memories!

[@derektinkler4120]

I really miss Sir Terry on his radio show it was a laugh a minute.

[@christee2908]

A legend.... Decades ago cable TV & radio came to Belgium and The Terry Wogan show became one of my most listened and favorite radio shows in those years. Thank you Terry for giving me so much listening enjoyment! It's so nice to hear his voice again, thank you KZbin

[@josephlandrut4154]

Terry Wogan will always bring fond memories for many people worldwide.

[@marktaylor4674]

Still a sad loss to the airwaves. For me this was when Radio 2 ended. It was never the same after Terry left his breakfast show and it has only gone ever more steeply down hill since.

[@manqustitch]

nearly 10 years ago, i still miss wogan

[@keithdetain7512]

just been listening to janet and john stories brilliant takes me back to when I was a long distance lorry driver, radio 2 kept me company for many hours, wogan and the rest kept me amused, bles them all , I am now 72 and living in Thailand, this brings back good memories, thank you

[@margaretmcallister5422]

Took a mouthful of coffee just before the line "Mother Superior of the Sisters of Perpetual PMT". Big mistake. Huge. Loved this guy - despite the hazards of driving during his original show broadcasts.

[@davidjanson9900]

im back for more mumblings NAY ramblings from the greatest as life has not been the same since the great mans demise

[@kensmith3871]

miss you sir terry you are the best of the best

[@garethparr9482]

Yeah sad to say although I still listen to radio 2 and enjoy it things are not the same. Everything has to change evolve whatever but it’s not always for the better. When Ken Bruce and Steve wright call it a day then I will to. Loved terry in the morning. Matchless!!

[@johnkilleen227]

What a wonderful human being

[@philippreen2807]

Wonderful memories of a great presenter, loved listening to wake up to wogan. Not listened to radio 2 since. Such a loss to everyone.

[@flyingfisbeefilms]

Thanks so much for posting this....It's like being back in Blighty when I worked for Rentokil and tuned in at early morning in my company car to go work to London from Bournemouth. Ok so I've become a TOG in France now but a Broadcaster like Sir Wogan doesn't exist in my adopted country....Bless you Terry for being part of my life listening to your wonderful show since I was 11 years old whilst making toast for my father (RIP). Again thanks for posting I'm not crying but reminiscing!

[@darrellmann7468]

An absolute pleasure to listen to over the years and a legend rip Terry 🙏

[@catherinegriessel56]

Always reminded me of my darling uncle frank, same sense of humour, Irish we could always laugh at ourselves RIP to you both, loved and missed

[@HispanoSuiza7]

I don't think it's hyperbole to suggest that this is an iconic piece of radio history. All good things must come to an end, as they say, and certainly a truism in this case. Thank you for making it available.

[@scottiedog4236]

Forever Our Queens Elizabeths Favourite autumn voice of the wonderful gorgeous Sir Terry 🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧❤️ I remember listening to you Sir Terry in my van travelling to fix gas boilers. You are always here ❤️

[@henhooke]

Just listened back to this on 3rd march 2023, Ken Bruce’s last day on radio 2 mid morning show, yet another legend gone! Made me want to listen back to that last speech once again!

[@Synthematix]

Playing his vinyl at the end was a touch of class, this man WAS 80s entertainment at its best, RIP Terry you were the best

[@davidtunnicliff5442]

i remember wogans winner in mid 70's.....27 minutes after 8. time to get off to school.

[@mrgordonjohn6143]

Terry Wogan we will never forget you.

[@BlueRememberedTardis]

I never heard this at the time (I was at work), so thank you for allowing me to hear this and other things too. Just brilliant!

[@russellbenton2987]

Much missed . Gentle humour to get you to work with a smile

[@CitizenofHeaven74]

The nan I've been listening for hours a day since 2001, I'm a Pole who just took his accent as mine. Thank you Terry,

[@emrys6738]

i felt the b.b.c got rid of old tell and we will never know the truth i miss you sorry you went home so soon fine man r.i.p

[@cazfloss1990]

Lovely Terry. He made the sitting in stationary traffic to work much more bearable?

[@phil3380]

I wrote so many letters and faxes , texts and emails over the years under a few pseudonyms and my own name and corpsed him a number of times. I was able to meet him and Pauly a few times and sat next to him at lunch in St Andrews at the convention. Mornings are not the same these days. I miss this great man, and I miss the family of TOGs. Any of you still out there ?? Phil Cowle

[@claudipopstutu1304]

How wonderful 🙂

[@fatbelly2438]

this is what you call an entertainer...todays clones wouldnt be fit to shine this mans shoes

[@TheBerrymo2]

Loved him then love him now

[@jaggass]

I was a TYG.

[@catherinegriessel56]

A lovely lovely man

[@mountainbloke40]

Wonderful --- no blubbing he says... ha no chance.....sob sob…

[@beccamay9291]

Just fantastic. A proper broadcaster. So very missed.

[@rangeofhills]

I still miss the man.

[@luvhart]

I had all his podcasts from wake up to/weekend Wogan saved for many years but sadly lost them.

[@dianahumphries5906]

So missed...

[@thethirteenthdoctor1716]

My granddad used to help him with his luggage at Heathrow airport

[@stuartlawsonbeattie1411]

There's only ONE ;)

[@MsVanorak]

i felt cast adrift when this show ended - opted for the sound of a 2L peugeot engine afterwards!

[@MrDirkles]

As radio 2 is now being unlistenable to anyone but the under 12's or the deaf. With the decent dj's either being sacked or leaving it is hard to believe just how good it used to be with the terry and the togs. if you were stuck in a traffic jam during a janet and john episode and you looked around you would see everyone laughing. Magical times!

[@BenMooreUK1]

Hahaha - except for his own record! Like it.

[@lukecaddy4203]

Listening on the 19/2/2022 💜🙏

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

Sadly missed. I have the full recording on tape.

[@keepgoing1973]

Very sad

[@scottmcmillan6807]

It's a great tribute to him, but, Lynn Parsons is not in this, it's Lynn Bowles lol. Hope it stays up though, that Janet and John story had me in stitches.

[@RandomRadioJottings]

+scott mcmillan Oops. Thanks Scott, I've corrected the description.

[@scottmcmillan6807]

Excellent. Cheers.

[@barb4645]

Still miss you Terry x

[@alex-xz2dm]

a love letter to raiido

[@alex-xz2dm]

why terry ouit ab he told me love is not a studio is at home

[@fluorosco]

Who shot JR?

[@BenMooreUK1]

Be a shame if the beeb takes this down, especially as you went to the trouble to nicely edit out the music.

[@RandomRadioJottings]

+Ben Moore Hope they won't. I didn't edit out enough of Peggy Lee and Anthony Newley to avoid a copyright notice though, so you'll see ads.

[@timbrewin9241]

The consumate broadcaster

[@timbrewin9241]

Also, Lynne Bowles is SO much better than the current incumbent

[@banijamra]

Terry was a remainer

[@z0770z]

And you?

[@emrys6738]

he was not sick wen he got the push from the b.b.c . he was old school and was not p.c, for them i hate the b.b.c thay loved old jimmy the perv . R.I.P. terry old lad.

[@RandomRadioJottings]

What nonsense. Terry was not pushed. He chose to step down from the breakfast show and continued to broadcast on Radio 2 on Sundays with Weekend Wogan.

[@josyoconnell2530]

I think he knew he was dying

[@karenf1001]

Josy O'Connell he didn’t die for years. He came back and did a Sunday morning show for ages after this. He only died a couple of years ago

[@briankane6547]

I did NOT welcome the Ginger Whinger old lad.
