Steve Wright R.I.P

thought you had left the forum

RIP Mr. Angry

Was great back in the day, but had piled weight on in recent years, RIP Steve wright in the afternoon.

After my time.

sad he is dead but the man was bloody awful, like an overgrown kid and he absolutely ruined totp2 with his idiotic mutterings

Bloody Awful! Record audience figures for years and loved by many thousands if not millions. If you have nothing decent to say then why don't you just say nothing. Sounds as if you're a miserable old man before your time.

Well said Stewart.

Referred a well liked singer to “cruise liner material “

Wasn’t the best imo

Heartache Avenue,very cruise liner said Wright….ignorance imv

What a knut you are pandora just fck right off with your " look at me" $hit

It would have been hard to ruin totp's of any number, they were all so dire anyway.
R.I.P. Steve.  Top D.J., Presenter and human being.
Already sadly missed - best wishes to his family.

he went to the same school as my two lads..albeit 35 years earlier. My wife says I am immature and don't take life too seriously..I think its years of listening to Sir Steve Wright !

he died like he lived , in the afternoon

R.I.P Steve- BBC 2 Steve Wright In the Afternoon was one of the greatest radio comedy programmes that I've heard. I rate it with The Goons/Hancock and Round The Horne etc. I've had to stop the car several times on Fridays when Barry From Watford-The Old Woman-and Ask Elvis were featured. I got to the stage when I would wait behind on site as it was not safe to drive home.A good guy and a great broadcaster.

Poor chap! He worked all his life, yet to even enjoy his "retirement", and now he's gone. RIP Mr Wright!

tory gov want pension age 71

pay in all working life

might not get paid

in reply to Tommyoflanark, is that Barry episode the one with the mint biscuit, ps one other classic youve missed out on, and to be honest ive only come across it few years back on radio 4 extra, but its  hilarious , Men from the Ministry

if you enjoy your job you never do a day's work in your life 123

Only aired his last show on Sunday, never got to enjoy his retirement RIP.

I liked Steve, he was 2 weeks younger than me.

Brightened up the airwaves
Unlike most of the gushing presenters
Sad loss

Fair point Howard.

R.I.P. Steve.
As it seems so sudden and he signed off saying back next week, makes you think a heart attack maybe.
Read that he had his own dental kit as didn't like dental visits.  If it was the same with doctors then you wonder if he had health checks what with having put on weight.

elisjohn- Didn't catch Men from the Ministry but will give it a try.

I don’t want to upset anyone but why did he model his look on Steven Segal?

He looks like his twin. Just wondering if he was a big fan or something.
