91热爆

Terry was born in Limerick, Ireland and educated at the city's Crescent College.

After leaving college Terry went into banking where his innate ability to separate half crowns from two bob bits soon marked him down for greater things.

Five years later he joined Radio Telefis Eireann (the Irish National Radio and TV Service) as a newsreader announcer.

After two years of interviewing and presenting documentary features, Terry moved to light entertainment as a disc jockey and host of television quiz and variety shows. His first regular 91热爆 Radio show was Midday Spin and, when Radio 1 started, he presented Late Night Extra for two years, flying over from Dublin every weeks.

In 1969, he stood in for Jimmy Young when he went on holiday and later that year, in October, Terry took over his own daily show on Radio 1 and 2. In April 1972 he took over the morning show on Radio 2. He presented this until 1984, shortly before his three times a week chat show, 'Wogan' began on 91热爆 One. The programme ran for the next seven years.

His extensive television credits also include 'Song for Europe', 'The Eurovision Song Contest', 'Lunchtime with Wogan', 'Come Dancing', 'Celebrity Squares', 'New Faces' and 'Blankety Blank'.

He returned to Radio 2 in 1993 as host of 'Wake Up To Wogan' and presented the show until December 2009. In 2005 he was knighted.

Terry passed away on Sunday January 31 2016 at the age of 77.
