I'm on the university board in Limerick, so I visit the city often. Terry Wogan boardcitylimerick Change image and share on social
All of us are private to ourselves. Nobody ever really knows anybody else. Everybody in the world keeps something to themselves. Terry Wogan privateworld Change image and share on social

I'd walked away from 'Come Dancing' and gave 'Blankety Blank' the elbow when I felt the public had had enough. But I didn't follow my instinct to escape from 'Wogan,' and was persuaded to continue for another two years. I kind of regret that. Terry Wogan blankblanketycontinue share on social
I don't do a lot when I'm in Gascony. I swim and play the odd game of golf, but mainly I sit around. We're set an hour-and-a-half from the Pyrenees and an hour-and-a-half from the Bay of Biscay, so we get plenty of storms. But we're surrounded by vines and sunflowers - it's lovely.

I've seen my fair share of drama over the years of Children In Need. I had a close brush with mortality in 2009 when a chain collapsed from the studio rigging. I was in mid-spout to camera when I heard an enormous crash behind me - a ton of steel had come hurtling down and smashed to the ground a few feet away. Terry Wogan brushcamerachain share on social
I'm terribly shallow. I don't miss things once I have stopped doing them, and I don't miss people when I stop seeing them. Terry Wogan mispeopleshallow Change image and share on social
People are not impressed by watching interviewees cry. People recognize chat shows with personalities as the trivial things that they are. They're not designed to be deep. Quite frankly, people in show business don't stand up to in-depth scrutiny. Terry Wogan businesschatcry share on social
A talk show is about having a look at a famous face, a bit of stand-up comedy, knockabout stuff - an interview is what Barbara Walters or Connie Chung does in the States, in-depth, done properly. Terry Wogan barbarabitechung Change image and share on social
