About the Book

Written in a style familiar to his millions of listeners, rich with warmth and irony, Terry introduces his post-Emergency Ireland, his chain-smoking maiden aunts, his quick-witted mother and hard-working father, the (not so) Christian Fathers who tried to knock his hands off and explains how - exactly - he's managed to avoid a hard day's work from childhood to Knighthood. As never before Terry discusses his life with the BBC, what he really does at the Eurovision every year and where he learnt to breakdance so brilliantly. It is the autobiography his fans - and TOGs - have been waiting for: fresh, honest and a real craic.

About the Author :
Sir Terry Wogan KBE was born in Limerick. After leaving college he went into banking and five years later joined RTE as a newsreader/announcer. In 1969 Terry stood in for BBC Radio's Jimmy Young and later that year was given his own daily shows on BBC Radio 1 and 2. In 1972 he took over the prestigious morning show slot and it's been downhill since then. Terry's extensive television credits include his live chat show series Wogan, The Eurovision Song Contest, Come Dancing and Blankety Blank, to name but a few. In 1993 Terry rejoined Radio2 to present Wake Up To Wogan, the most listened to breakfast show in the UK. In a moment of weakness, the Queen honoured him with a knighthood in 2005. He is married to the sainted Lady Helen, the present Mrs Wogan, and has two sons and a daughter.

Review :
a master of the well-polished anecdote.... the legions of TOGS (Terry's Old Geezers or Gals for the unitiated) will savour every sentence. - PARK & HOLIDAY HOMES - Simon Evans

Although reading his words can almost conjure his dulcet tones, with this audiobook there is no need as Terry talks about his life and career. Children in Need, Wogan, the Eurovision, and TOGs (Terry's Old Geezers), all feature heavily in this, his second, but very funny and worthwhile, autiobiography. - IRISH FARMERS MONTHLY

[another] eminently entertaining memoir [which has] certainly grabbed my attention ... not surprisingly enhanced by the narration of the man himself. - THE BOOK MAGAZINE - Vidar Hjardeng
