RIP Ian Lavender and Steve Wright.
Took the van out for a short drive. Really want to thank everyone who made it possible to do this again. Especially Abbi Lewis for arranging everything.

To understand how good Steve Wright was just listen to this from 1983, it sounds so fresh years later #RIPSteveWright in my mind Steve put the DNA into so much modern Ad lib spontaneity FUN from Radio/Tv even through to 10sec vids on Tik Tok..this guy started it all years ago
RIP Steve Wright.
So glad to have my van back in time to do a proper muddy tribute. What a legend.

Trying to be funny with writers and chat GPT is one thing in 2024, but back in 83 Steve wright had none of that just talent timing and 100% confident in his team...this live on the radio Ad lib sketch

How awful! 😥I was listening to #Pickofthepops on Saturday. A broadcasting legend! #RIPSteveWright
What a great Broadcaster. I think like many others it will be strange not hearing him anymore. It’s one thing to be a Radio DJ it’s quite another to captivate an audience and take them on a journey with you for decades and decades. He did that and so much more. #ripstevewright 🙏
Here’s how they made one of UK radio’s most recognisable theme tunes.

I can't sleep. I'm thinking of my dear friend Steve. We took this picture 4 weeks ago in New York. We were trying to do, as he put it 'ironic selfies'. He had such a love of Life and radio..He told me 'AJ the blond hair has to go!' I miss him #RIPSteveWright
So shocked and saddened by the news about Steve Wright, he was one of our best broadcasters and a lovely guy.
Thanks for all the brilliant radio shows #RIPSteveWright
A little tribute to Steve Wright, here in 2005 Tony Hatch joins Steve to talk music and themes as part of the promotion of the 'Hatchbox' CD collection & the first Crossroads DVD release. #SteveWright #RIPSteveWright The full interview can be heard on Crossroads FB.
#RIPSteveWright A massive blow to stage and screen. The master of under statement. Taken from us all too soon. Irreplaceable talent. Sleep well prince. #stevewright
Radio 1 was so good back in the day. Mike Read for breakfast followed by Simon Bates and his golden hour and Our tune. Lunchtime with Oooh Gary Davis and then Steve Wright in the afternoon gave us big laughs.

So glad Vernon Kay played Ask Elvis that was my favourite, had a good laugh then cried like a baby when they played Elvis, that was my late mums favourite too. It sounds like it got to Vernon at the end too. #SteveWright BBC Radio 2 #RIP SteveWright #RIP
The ICONIC #SteveWright Theme from his Big Show that he hosted on #BBCRadio2 for 24 years opening Scott Mills's show this afternoon ❤️ #RIPSteveWright
