Product Description

Review

"As charmingly off the wall as you'd expect" (THE SUN )


Product Description

What is it like to live the life of Sir Terry Wogan KBE? WOGAN'S TWELVE puts you in the passenger seat as Terry journeys through a helter-skelter year. From radio to TV studio, from hosting a charity event to experiencing the thrills of a Eurovision Song Contest, to sitting in the garden of his French chateau waiting for the rain to stop, there's no denying that Terry Wogan does more in one year than most people do in a lifetime. With diary entries and specially commissioned Matt cartoons through the months, this is a wonderfully witty, off-the-wall account of the year's highlights, the lunacies of the modern world, and of course the Eurovision Song Contest. It's a perceptive insight, warm with Terry's distinctive voice, and a must-have for his millions of fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable canter, 17 Oct 2007
By Uma Head (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wogan's Twelve: A Sharp Eye and a Witty Word to Mark the Passing Year (Hardcover)
An enjoyable canter through a year in the life of the iconic broadcaster, which among other things provides an insight into what Sir Terry gets up to during those frequent breaks he takes from his broadcasting these days. As with his radio show, he uses comments from his listeners (for example the admirable Des Custard, who muses on subjects from smoking in films to England players abroad) to provide alternative views on life and to augment his own easy wit. All in all, an enjoyable read, and a reliable stocking-filler for anyone over forty.

By A new mum (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wogan's Twelve: A Sharp Eye and a Witty Word to Mark the Passing Year (Hardcover)
What a great book. You can dip in, dip out and I laughed at every page. Good one Terry, thanks for the laughs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Naked Mango Munching?, 17 Oct 2007
This review is from: Wogan's Twelve: A Sharp Eye and a Witty Word to Mark the Passing Year (Hardcover)
Having thoroughly enjoyed the ups and downs of Sir Terry's life through his other two autobiographies, this canter through his last twelve months was going to be a must-read with him hopefully trotting out more witty anecdotes. And, neigh, I needn't have worried. Mind you, I'm obliged to say that as he had the decency to mention a colleague's book 'Pets in Prospect' by vet, Malcolm Welshman, on his Show. Terry's Twelve stays the course for light entertainment for which he is famous. Though I'm not sure about eating a mango in the nude. Why a mango? What's wrong with good old British fruit? A firm Cox's Orange Pippin, a juicy pear or a couple of ripe Victoria plums would have been more in keeping with Terry's iconic status as a National Treasure.
