Radio presenter Ken Bruce has led tributes from Oxfordshire residents to BBC Radio 2 broadcaster Steve Wright after his death aged 69.
The legendary BBC Radio 2 DJ died aged 69 on Monday - four years after his ex-wife passed away during Covid which made him 'completely shut down'.
Presenting a special episode of Wright's Sunday Love Songs show this morning, Tarbuck said the show was going on but 'without the chief'. She also read out heartfelt tributes from listeners to the much-loved DJ.
Tarbuck, 59, opened the 'Remembering Steve Wright' episode by saying: 'This is Steve Wright's Sunday Love Songs but without the chief, without our genius friend.'
Her voice shaking, she added: 'So while you're getting a tissue, I think it would be lovely if you lit him a candle. I make no apologies if I get upset over the next two hours and I don't think you should either.'
Wright's final show was last Sunday, when he hosted a pre-recorded edition of his programme for Valentine's Day. Wright told listeners in his final sign-off: 'I'll be back for more love songs next Sunday, ta-da then.'

Me neither, tuned in a couple of times in a desperate search for something to listen to, and rapidly gone elsewhere. Seems like the management can't comprehend how in countless, homes and business throughout the UK, everything stopped, breaks both official & unofficial were timed to coincide with bits and pieces in the roadshow days or Popmaster with Ken Bruce

He’d been part of my life from my child and teen years listening to Radio 1 in the 80s and 90s. How on earth could they not think he was relevant to people of my age?

I can understand Steve referring to Helen as a friend despite the fact she gave him the elbow after all those years. As a business owner I have worked for individuals and companies for twenty or thirty years and then reached the end of the road with them. The folks I have worked for are acquaintances rather than friends but I know I owe them thanks for using me and I have enjoyed perks along the way working for them. Dear old Steve was a consummate broadcaster and a decent kind man. We will miss his input into our lives.

The Beeb hired a real cabbage with Helen Thomas. Steve Wright was always an entertainer, our trips out on the road on tour his programs made the endless trips on motorways a pleasure. He was such a real genius talent. Of course people of no talent, usually the Management, can’t stand that. Radio is an empty place without his super positivity and humour. RIP

My 1st job after training for 18 months as a Radar engineer in the RAF , was at RAF Locking in 1981. In 1T hangar where Radio 1 would be playing, Steve Wright came on who I'd not heard before. I was instantly hooked. He would go right up close to the microphone and say "C'mon touch your radio and feel the warmth of my sincerity " 😎 I could not believe it when BBC bosses axed his show in 2022 I cannot listen to Steve's replacement Scott Mills instead I listen to my own music collection instead. Too young to go Steve RIP 💜 Strange this tragedy has happened in the same week BBC are dismantling Wogan house.

Steve Wright was my childhood disc jockey that I listened to on Radio 1 and on Top of the Pops then again on Radio 2…. When I heard that Steve Wright was being dropped from his huge and very entertaining afternoon radio 2 show slot, you could hear in his voice on that day he just wasn’t happy and almost emotional telling all his avid radio followers and listeners of that sad news. Then when I heard the day the news reported his sad passing it was as if my whole listening eras had fallen down and I couldn’t believe it at first, I thought it was a fake news report till I went on the internet and it was everywhere about his sad passing.. One thing about Steve Wright is no other disc jockey or music presenter will ever fill Steve’s shoes. He was definitely one in a billion person and the BBC and the bosses in control were the ones who ended Steve Wrights life. Shane on you lot at the BBC. and the BBC wonder why so many people are refusing to continue to renew of pay for a yearly very expensive over priced tv licence…..😡😡😡
