Very sad. An institution. Unique. Irreplaceable. The end of an era. A national treasure. THE voice of the BBC. No. He WAS the BBC.

I couldn't agree more. I grew up on Wogan. Very sad. R.I.P.

Up and coming rock band Viola Beach (and their manager) killed in a car accident in Sweden.

A whole band - wiped out. They're actually pretty good too. Sad.
RIP lads.
