Steve Wright

Very very bad news. I loved his radio show in the 80s and have some of it recorded. His interviews with Arnold S and Meatloaf were hilarious.

I just posted it, got merged with a thread with a title that doesn’t bear any resemblance to Steve Wight dying.

This thread is a car crash now. Should have had a separate rip thread. There's a post saying he's a self centered simpleton then the next he's died.
I thought Steve's show was up there with the likes of Ken Bruce and Terry Wogan. The very best DJs on the radio in their day. Radio 2 is barely worth listening to these days. It's sad Steve has passed so suddenly, very sad.

Thought I saw him at the Radio 1 roadshow in 1990 in Somerset, but I just looked it up and that was Philip Schofield.

RIP

I would get your arse dusted for finger prints mate, could be a claim there.

I recall a ‘caller’ asking how to change the cam shaft on a m2 viva - very funny

 

[Butcher's Coat]

Big shock that mind, very sad news.
Only listened to him on Sunday morning.
RIP Steve - another radio legend gone.

Really sad news. Loved his show and thought it was a poor decision to get rid of him.

Weather he was to your style or not he was a natural broadcaster - up there with the very best.

Probably the only DJ I could get away with in the 80s, some of his patter was class in his earlier radio 1 days.

Shite moderation. There was a separate thread but it was merged. Can probably work out who was responsible.

I don’t know what they were thinking of, I really don’t

Hadn't listened to him in ages tbh, but I loved his show in the 80s.

RIP.

Fairly confident she’ll make money off folk viewing her odious videos. I’ve no idea what this is but I’m guessing it won’t be pleasant so I’ll not be lining her pockets.

As @Hucknalls Fluffer asks, care to give us a synopsis
