I never listened, but any voice of radio like him does so much for many. RIP.

Good radio presenter. RIP Jimmy.

Good voice in his day as well. Did Puppy Love didn't he before that Osmond kid did it.

Glad not just me who recalls that and the little cartoon voice Raymondo - never did find out what he/she/it was.

Probably the voice of a producer or something.

Just Murray and Blackburn from this quintet still going. Tony-Blackburn-Pete-Murray-Ed-Stewart-Terry-Wogan-and-Jimmy-Young.jpg

He was the reason I hated Radio 2, it was for my parents, not me! But, nevertheless, a great orator. I will never forget going home for lunch from my old primary school and hearing 'what's for dinner today Jim'. I cringed.

Wasn't he the first ever number one in this country when they made charts official?

Three of them gone this year.

There was lots of banter between Terry Wogan & Jimmy Young during their handovers. Both witty men who were quick with their ad libs. Jimmy was good at interviewing guests & making sure he got answers. He wouldn't accept flannel from them.
