Terry Wogan's new show.

[paul kersey]

Did anyone listen to Terry Wogan's new show today?, if so what did you think of it?.

[paul kersey]

Come on, has he really lost 8 million listeners in 2 months?

[Film Man]

I thought the format was pretty poor...He doesn't need the Radio Theatre...just his news mates and a small studio with a few letters.

I agree. He persists in trying to do the live audience thing, whether on TV or in this instance, and it simply isn't what he's best at.

I suppose that we must give it time to settle in, however given the fact that Terry Wogan has been broadcasting since the early sixties, I thought that he would hit the ground running. For me, the whole idea is wrong. Wogan was always at his best on the old Breakfast show, it had a nice one to one feeling that the new show lacks. I note from the Radio Times that the new show was number 1 of a series of 12, perhaps Sir Terry or the BBC know that something is not right with the new show?.

I only heard part of the interview he did with Ian McKellen and he was EMOTING rather LOUDLY to the AUDIENCE (Wogan that is,not Sir Ian), but he did get a laugh quoting one of the Gervais/Merchant lines written for McKellen from Extras, which I think they were both surprised about!

As much as I like Sir Tel,I do agree with you.

No-one does intimacy as well as Wogan. But there's nothing intimate about sitting in front of a large audience.

I've been actively avoiding it like the plague. I detest Wogan with a passion.



Michael Ball is back on the 16th May - hooray.

I dipped in and out during the show on Sunday, but every time i got the blaring 'music' of that Elio Pace band. I can't cope with that sort of racket on a Sunday. Pity, because the old boy has a way with words, a connection with the TOGS & TYGS. He should concentrate on that & cut the rest. OOPs: that would be the Wogan show from which he just retired...

[paul kersey]

Well, as the instigator of this post and as someone who listened to Terry Wogan from the age of about 12 to 47. I hate to say it but this latest show proves that he was correct when he chose to bow out in December 2009. I can't even listen to the new show anymore, sorry!!!!!!!

[Sleepin_Dragon]

I cannot stand him anymore, he is on an ego trip and adores his own voice. Too obnoxious.

I could never stand him full stop, is he still using his long hair collie for hair pieces

[Marky B]

He normally has good guests,but Gervais was on today,so the off button was applied.

You can "watch" the show on Freeview 301. His interview with National Treasure Bernard

Cribbins was a delight .

Never seen of heard the prog before but liked it - Wogan wasn't trying to hard to be funny like I felt he did on his morning show
