For a time Terry Wogan was the king of the chat show, and he can still to this day in repeats/clips on line show the current crop of pretenders (sorry, presenters) how it should be done.

We do miss Terry.

Hosted by the amiable Terry Wogan, this series took over from Parkinson as the BBC's top chat show. Terry spoke to stars from all over the world and attracted massive regular audiences. Wogan certainly provides the only rival to Parkinson when it comes to the greatest British talk show.

Who can forget Wogans legendary chat show from the 1980s. From the opening theme music the fun began. He always seemed to have an unusual mix of celebrities which usually guaranteed unpredictable and great Live TV. i think it ran 3 nights a week at 7pm on BBC1 and interviews that stick in the mind are obviously George Best drunken appearance, antiques wonder-kid James Harries and the Joan Rivers, Julian Clary and Beryl Reid interview which turned into a bitch-fest. Another feature of the show was the "live" link ups to celebrities in America on the big screen. It always seemed to end with Wogan saying something like " our satellite link is fading, well have to say goodbye" or the screen would go blank or fuzzy.
