Definately Radio 2. I consider myself a TYG still at age 36. Terry's young geezer, TOG being Terrys Old Geezer. I laugh so hard sometimes, I don't know how I keep the car on the road. Johnathan Ross is great on Saturdays too. Pam

I usually listen to my local commercial radio but if I am in the car and away from the area I will listen to Radio 2. I am nearly 40 and just find Radio 1 boring these days. I always say you know you are getting old when you start to like Radio 2. I used to moan at my dad for listening to it when I was a kid. Mel

Radio 2 definitely the best. Sarahs jokes, Terrys sense of humour, Ken because he's Scottish and then the chats on up to date news. Steve Wright does annoy sometimes as there seems to be too much talking over one another and they forget about the listeners. Jonathon is brilliant on a Saturday. Anyone hear his conversation about "picking your nose and eating it is good for you" last Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got to be Radio 2, like Ken Bruce and Steve Wright. mainly because they do the quizes. My mates laugh when I tell em I listen to radio 2, but radio 1 hasn't been the same since Steve Wright & Noel Edmonds left...now I am showing my age! I used to moan like hell when my dad listened to it....oh well....full circle :-)

I'm definately a TOG at the age of 47 and have always listened to Radio 2. My mum used to listen when I was younger and I do wish I'd taken heed of Terry Wogan and his Fight The Flab Brigade, perhaps I wouldn't be quite so rotund now! Used to know Paul Walters and his family as I lived in the same village they lived in. I suppose that is why I have stayed loyal to radio 2. Viv.

Definately a TOG. Used to listen to Radio Shropshire but then a friend insisted on changing the radio station one day when they were visiting and it hasn't been changed back in over 3 years. Terry Wogan, Ken Bruce, Jeremy Vine (can be very informative), Steve Wright and lastly Johnnie Walker. Great bunch. Excellant background whilst at the computer all day. A definate TOG at - 44 (as regards the lying thread !!!!!!!!) Janet

I am a true tog.. I listen to Sarah Kennedy who is "The Bizz" love Terry Wogan and pauly, Ken Bruce, I usually go out to visit my Mum at 12 sometimes catch Steve Wright, and I think Johnnie Walker is an amazing man getting through his chemo for bowel cancer and his programme is brill.... So Radio 2 I listen to as you can see.....

Radio 3 or Classic FM, occasionally radio 2 but, if I am in the car, tapes or CDs rather than 2 (except Sunday afternoons when its not too bad.

LOL Nat I didn't think you'd actually do this - do you feel better now that most people seem to listen to Radio 2 ? For the record, I listen to Radio One, but if I get frustrated by what they're playing I revert to Radio 2... or a CD. Never listen to the local station, can't STAND the adverts it's worse than the TV...

They have MTV permanently playing in the cafe where I work, as well as local radio playing the background whilst I'm working so I cannot escape the clutches of the latest commercial fodder that makes up most of the Top 40. Which is why I don't listen to a lot of Radio 1 (Steve Lamacq would be an exception). If I'm in the car, I tend to have it on Radio 2 (the 15 year old me would be disappointed!). I'm not a big fan of Wogan but he's infinitely preferable to the annoying, overrated Moyles. If I'm at home, I like listening to digital Radio 6, good selection of DJs and a wide range of musical tastes.
