I would have been so embarrassed, even too embarrassed to ask for seconds. Wogan is probably the best choice of the national music channels for breakfast. Which is a sad indictment.<BR/><BR/>Kaz - DJs and their wigs (or a certain DJ) had us in hysterics on Saturday. Dr Wally - is that Dr Fox?<BR/><BR/>Willie - Do Wogan, Bob Geldof and Bono sit at a round table, addressing each other as "Sir"?<BR/><BR/>Boz - Betty saved it to our computer for a previous post. It's our screen saver.<BR/><BR/>Malc - I didn't see the Best interview but I would have liked to have seen Oliver Reed spoil a Wogan show. Anybody's better than Moyles. I really can't believe anybody likes him. There are more apt Paul Young songs to put next to Kylie.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-28252098454519019112008-08-04T12:05:00.000+01:002008-08-04T12:05:00.000+01:00I'll never forgive him (or the BBC) for humiliatin...I'll never forgive him (or the BBC) for humiliating George Best, using a pathetic drunk for cheap laughs on his dismal chat show.<BR/><BR/>Do remember when Jimmy Young was on Radio 1 and 2 at the same time? Still better than Moyles.<BR/><BR/>And is it me or is Radio 2's music selected by a team of semi-trained chimps? The recent highlight was following Love Will Tear Us Apart with Kylie's Wow.

Radio 2 has gone from being the housewives' favourite to an all things to all people over 40 station. Give me Smooth any day.
