Synopsis
Eight million people improved their mornings by tuning into Wake up to Wogan. But was their appetite sated by this daily exposure? Not in the slightest. So it's lucky that Terry has been known to turn his hand to the odd bit of writing. This has allowed him to shed light on such weighty matters as what Bank Holidays are for and why Eurovision could be responsible for the Celtic Tiger. Where Was I?! gives his devoted followers exactly what they want – the inimitable Wogan viewpoint; a droll, forthright voice of sanity in a world gone gently mad. Like his broadcasting, his writing is an effortless flow of easy wit and sage opinion, and demostrates exactly how he has come to be a national treasure.

About the Author
Terry Wogan was born in Limerick and educated at Crescent College. After five years in banking Terry joined Radio Telefis Eirann as a newsreader/announcer. Moving to light entertainment as a DJ and host of TV quiz and variety shows, in 1969 Terry stood in for BBC Radio's Jimmy Young and was soon given daily shows on BBC Radio 1 and 2. In 1972 he took over the prestigious morning show and it's been downhill since then. Terry's TV credits include his live chat show series WOGAN, SONGS FOR EUROPE, THE EUROVISION SONG CONTEST, COME DANCING and BLANKETY BLANK, to name but a few. In 1993 Terry rejoined BBC Radio 2 to present WAKE UP TO WOGAN the most listened to breakfast show in the UK. In a moment of weakness Her Majesty the Queen honoured him with a knighthood in 2005. He is married to the sainted Lady Helen and has two sons and a daughter.
Review
'If you like listening to him, you'll love this book. It's gentle, discursive, charming and every now and then a shaft of steel flickers through.' THE LADY
