:01:50. > :01:52.Today the BBC's Director General, Lord Hall, spoke of him
:01:53. > :01:59.Our Arts Correspondent, David Sillito reports.
:02:00. > :02:04.Please welcome our knight of the realm, Sir Terry Wogan!
:02:05. > :02:09.Welcome to the beginning of what I hope will be a long
:02:10. > :02:14.How anyone can get such applause and still stay as nice as me,
:02:15. > :02:27.If being famous was there on offer, great!
:02:28. > :02:32.Terry Wogan, warm, witty, never lost for a word.
:02:33. > :02:52.There was a natural warmth. He warm, generous person and Goode
:02:53. > :02:56.express that in his voice. He just was himself. He was natural.
:02:57. > :03:02.But he had the right temperament to be a radio broadcaster. He was a
:03:03. > :03:10.charming, warm, generous, witty man. You knew him as soon as you heard
:03:11. > :03:15.him. And here is that boys 52 years ago.
:03:16. > :03:21.Commentating for or TE on President Kennedy's visit to Ireland.
:03:22. > :03:24.A number of expensive and smart restaurants with continental
:03:25. > :03:26.cuisine. But his ambitions lay with another
:03:27. > :03:28.broadcaster. I suppose I was a bit of a West
:03:29. > :03:44.Brit. I suppose in a way I had more in
:03:45. > :03:49.common with British radio and television than I had with Iris.
:03:50. > :03:54.He was one of the original line-up of radio one. But his real home was
:03:55. > :03:58.Radio 2. Have a pencil and paper handy. All great radio is the friend
:03:59. > :04:03.behind the microphone. And nobody was a better friend than Terry
:04:04. > :04:09.Wogan. That is why people feel upset and genuinely shocked. They feel as
:04:10. > :04:13.though they have lost a friend. The final total of this very night
:04:14. > :04:18.for a Children in Need... Children in Need showed his mastery of coping
:04:19. > :04:23.with anything. He was also enormously proud of what it
:04:24. > :04:26.achieved. We have helped literally millions and millions of
:04:27. > :04:32.disadvantaged children right across the UK. And I think that is the
:04:33. > :04:38.legacy that he would like to leave as much as the fantastic impact he
:04:39. > :04:44.made on broadcasting. His 1980s chat show was on three times a week. You
:04:45. > :04:50.said you find this horrific. Proving he could cope even when the guests
:04:51. > :05:00.did not want to chat. Is a major macro Probably.
:05:01. > :05:09.Is mischievous good-natured blossomed on blanketed line. I could
:05:10. > :05:13.have been a brain surgeon or anything. I could have been a disc
:05:14. > :05:22.jockey! Or gently mocking the Eurovision Song contest. Four
:05:23. > :05:26.knitting brides of Frankenstein and a loony with a close line. His love
:05:27. > :05:36.of golf even provided a bit of TV magic.
:05:37. > :05:44.But he was at his best in the place where he had most freedom. It was
:05:45. > :05:49.certainly the hardest to say goodbye to. So, I'm going to miss you. Until
:05:50. > :05:52.we are together again in February. Have a happy Christmas. And thank
:05:53. > :05:57.you. Thank you for being my friend.
:05:58. > :05:59.Sir Terry was famous for his close relationship with his audience -
:06:00. > :06:02.particularly his ardent Radio 2 fans, known as TOGs -
:06:03. > :06:07.When he retired from Radio 2 he paid tribute to them -
:06:08. > :06:10.and said how important they'd been to his life.
:06:11. > :06:16.Our Special correspondent Lucy Manning reports.
:06:17. > :06:27.He had the most loyal fans, the TOGs, always listening and riding
:06:28. > :06:33.in. The TOGs our Terry's old geezers and girls. They have a life of their
:06:34. > :06:36.own. I go to conventions. How do you qualify at? Well, you are asleep
:06:37. > :06:40.where others worry they would be dead. You're proud of your lawn
:06:41. > :06:45.mower. The end of your tide does not come anywhere near the top of your
:06:46. > :06:51.pants! Terry even got some of his TOGs together. Without TOGs we would
:06:52. > :06:56.not have met. Terry takes the credit. We had to wait a little
:06:57. > :07:02.while to make sure we were going to stay together and he was quite happy
:07:03. > :07:07.after that, he took the credit. It felt like it was part of a big
:07:08. > :07:13.family. He always made you feel that you were the one he was talking to.
:07:14. > :07:16.Just a single person, almost. He included everybody. In that way I
:07:17. > :07:21.think everybody felt they were part of the programme. They revelled in
:07:22. > :07:28.the jokes, the silly names, his Janet and John. You look like Louis
:07:29. > :07:38.XV. Thank you, said Charles. I had a lovely time. You did not have to be
:07:39. > :07:42.an old girl birdies to wake up to Wogan. I went on a first date with
:07:43. > :07:48.my now husband and in the course of the evening I said to him, I need to
:07:49. > :07:52.confess something, I wake up with Wogan in the morning. He said,
:07:53. > :08:01.that's OK, so do I. We really laughed about it. Young lovers of
:08:02. > :08:02.Wogan. We walked of -- out of our wedding reception to the floral
:08:03. > :08:19.dance. And for the group Blake, the backing
:08:20. > :08:25.of such an influential broadcaster mattered as they listened to their
:08:26. > :08:32.time on his show. There is the voice. It is Blake. All right,
:08:33. > :08:39.Blake? We still have a quote from Sir Terry on our tour posters. It
:08:40. > :08:42.says a trio of surpassing musical brilliance, Terry Wogan. It was
:08:43. > :08:50.quite sweet. A charming thing to say. I'm sure sold some tickets! The
:08:51. > :08:54.friend the microphone, that voice, that John mother was Terry Wogan.
:08:55. > :08:57.David Sillito our Arts correspondent is live outside BBC
:08:58. > :09:06.We heard some of it in the report. He was a man who inspired not just
:09:07. > :09:13.admiration but immense affection? Absolutely. The British and Irish
:09:14. > :09:16.Lions Prime Minister, the President of Ireland and somebody famous names
:09:17. > :09:21.paying tribute. One that struck me was Paul O'Grady. He said there was
:09:22. > :09:25.no falsehood about him. That is something echoed by many people.
:09:26. > :09:29.When you met him in private he was almost exactly the man you heard on
:09:30. > :09:35.the radio. He was mischievous, he had a delight in irony and also he
:09:36. > :09:41.enjoyed being spontaneous. He hated to plan. And of course, being Irish
:09:42. > :09:48.helped. That accent is classless in Britain. He could speak one to one
:09:49. > :09:51.to people in a sense of, there is a personal joke between us. One person
:09:52. > :09:56.who put it best was his friend and a person who had also appeared on his
:09:57. > :10:00.radio show for many years. Father Brian D'Arcy. He said the reason
:10:01. > :10:04.people loved him so much was that he was one of the few broadcasters who
:10:05. > :10:06.thought the audience, he presumed the audience was as clever as he
:10:07. > :10:15.was. David Sillito.
:10:16. > :10:18.Police in Tanzania say they have arrested three men after a British
:10:19. > :10:19.helicopter pilot was killed while tracking
:10:20. > :10:23.The pilot, Roger Gower, died on Friday when he was shot down
:10:24. > :10:27.His brother has told the BBC
:10:28. > :10:30.that he knew that chasing poachers was taking a risk.
:10:31. > :10:42.Roger Gower was doing the job he loved when he was killed. That does
:10:43. > :10:46.not make it any easier for his family. At his home in west London,
:10:47. > :10:49.Max Gower said his brother knew the risks involved in tracking poachers
:10:50. > :10:54.but he was not aware just how close he had got to them. He would not
:10:55. > :11:01.have gone anywhere near those poachers if he had known that they
:11:02. > :11:06.were armed. As I understand it, he knew there were around but he came
:11:07. > :11:11.across them by accident and did not really have enough time to evaluate
:11:12. > :11:16.the situation before they could fire on him. Roger Gower built a
:11:17. > :11:21.successful business flying tourist safaris in Tanzania. But he had also
:11:22. > :11:25.become increasingly passionate about conservation, flying regular patrols
:11:26. > :11:29.to track poaching activity. He was doing just that when his helicopter
:11:30. > :11:33.was brought down, fired on by poachers who had killed three
:11:34. > :11:38.elephants. Mr Gower was badly wounded. His guide managed to jump
:11:39. > :11:42.clear and hide in the bush. The British pilot died of his injuries.
:11:43. > :11:47.The authorities say three men have now been arrested. Poaching has
:11:48. > :11:52.become an industry worth millions in Tanzania at huge cost to the
:11:53. > :11:57.elephant population. Since 2009, elephant numbers here have fallen by
:11:58. > :12:04.60%. 30,000 are killed by poachers every year. Bush pilots are a key
:12:05. > :12:08.part of the battle to save Africa's elephants. Roger Gower is not the
:12:09. > :12:12.first person to be killed by poachers, but his loss is a blow to
:12:13. > :12:14.Tanzania and conservation as well as to the family he leaves behind.
:12:15. > :12:17.Richard Lister, BBC News. At least 50 people have been killed
:12:18. > :12:20.and more than a hundred injured in a series of bombings,
:12:21. > :12:22.close to the Syrian capital, The so-called Islamic State says it
:12:23. > :12:26.carried out the attacks which targeted one of
:12:27. > :12:28.Shia Islam's holiest shrines. Doctors in Switzerland say they have
:12:29. > :12:31.separated eight-day-old conjoined sisters, believed to be the youngest
:12:32. > :12:37.babies to be successfully parted. Swiss media say doctors had
:12:38. > :12:44.originally planned to separate them when they were several months
:12:45. > :12:47.old but brought the operation forward when they each suffered
:12:48. > :12:51.a life-threatening condition. The operation reportedly carried
:12:52. > :12:56.a 1% chance of success. The Business Secretary, Sajid Javid,
:12:57. > :12:58.says the controversial settlement between Google and the tax
:12:59. > :13:00.authorities "wasn't Under the deal, the internet giant
:13:01. > :13:06.has agreed to pay 130-million pounds in additional back taxes
:13:07. > :13:09.covering the past decade. The Chancellor, George Osborne had
:13:10. > :13:11.called the agreement David Cameron is meeting
:13:12. > :13:19.the European Council president Donald Tusk at Downing
:13:20. > :13:21.Street this evening - part of his bid to reform
:13:22. > :13:23.Britain's EU membership. He's pushing for a proposed
:13:24. > :13:29."emergency brake" to deny benefit payments to working EU migrants
:13:30. > :13:31.to be triggered immediately The meeting is getting underway now
:13:32. > :13:36.and our Political correspondent Carole Walker joins us
:13:37. > :13:38.from Downing Street.Carole how important to the process
:13:39. > :13:52.is this meeting? Well, this really is a critical
:13:53. > :13:56.meeting. I do not think it will be a relaxing dinner they will be having.
:13:57. > :14:01.Donald Tusk is hoping tomorrow to circulate a letter setting out the
:14:02. > :14:05.draft outline of a deal on a new relationship between Britain and the
:14:06. > :14:08.rest of the EU. David Cameron has made it very clear that he is simply
:14:09. > :14:13.not happy with what is being offered. He originally wanted a four
:14:14. > :14:19.year delay before EU workers could claim benefits. That ran into a huge
:14:20. > :14:24.amount of opposition. So this idea of an emergency brake was floated.
:14:25. > :14:29.That was with a long and cumbersome process and they need the approval
:14:30. > :14:31.of other EU nations. What David Cameron will say tonight is that he
:14:32. > :14:37.wants Britain to apply that emergency brake on the payment of
:14:38. > :14:40.benefits to EU workers -- migrant workers and keep it in place as long
:14:41. > :14:45.as it's needed, and that should just be a stopgap to a more permanent
:14:46. > :14:49.arrangement. There is a lot to thrash out. David Cameron is making
:14:50. > :14:53.it clear that every does not get the right deal, he is prepared to walk
:14:54. > :14:57.away from that UN summit without a deal, and to just carry on
:14:58. > :15:02.negotiating. Carole Walker, thank you.
:15:03. > :15:04.This month alone, more than 50 thousand migrants have made
:15:05. > :15:06.the perilous sea crossing from Turkey to Greece -
:15:07. > :15:08.a 35-fold increase from this time last year.
:15:09. > :15:11.In the same period, 250 people have drowned attempting the journey.
:15:12. > :15:13.Today, our correspondent James Reynolds has been aboard
:15:14. > :15:31.It is an hour before dawn. 25 Iraqi migrants wave from their broken
:15:32. > :15:38.boats. They do not believe Europe is full. Rescuers go to get them. A
:15:39. > :15:45.private company supports the Greek coastguard. Winter has not stopped
:15:46. > :15:50.migrants from coming. But it has made their journey much more
:15:51. > :16:03.dangerous. A child can survive in these Waters for only 15 minutes.
:16:04. > :16:07.The migrants, their children coming aboard now. Those who have been at
:16:08. > :16:21.sea for such a long time, this moment of rescue must surely be one
:16:22. > :16:29.of the great moments of their lives. They were happy to see you? They
:16:30. > :16:31.were happy. They were happy. Inside the ship, an Italian medical team
:16:32. > :16:36.treats a man who has the ship, an Italian medical team
:16:37. > :16:43.inhaling fumes. Others recover more quickly. And are ready to stop being
:16:44. > :16:49.smothered. S thank you very much. Thank you and thank you. This man
:16:50. > :17:01.and his family have escaped Islamic State in Iraq. At dawn the rescue
:17:02. > :17:04.boat heads to Greece. Towing with it the useless vessel of the migrants.
:17:05. > :17:10.Their first steps in Europe are a little uncertain. Greece will give
:17:11. > :17:13.them shelter. But finding a home is up to them.
:17:14. > :17:22.With all the sport, here's Karthi Gnanasegaram.
:17:23. > :17:28.Good evening. Andy Murray admitted it has been a tough tournament after
:17:29. > :17:33.being beaten in the Australian Open final by world number one Novak
:17:34. > :17:39.Djokovic. The Serb won in straight sets to claim a record a drink six
:17:40. > :17:42.title. Murray said he was keen to get home and at found it hard to
:17:43. > :17:45.play tennis while his wife was about to have their first child and his
:17:46. > :17:51.father-in-law had collapsed during the tournament.
:17:52. > :17:56.Jon Donnison report. Andy Murray must have had a sense of deja vu. As
:17:57. > :18:02.he attempted to win the trophy that has eluded him for so long. This was
:18:03. > :18:07.his fifth Australian Open final. The fourth against his memo -- nemesis,
:18:08. > :18:12.Novak Djokovic. The first set was a disaster. The Scot did not get a
:18:13. > :18:16.look in. He went down 6-1. His brother, Jamie, who told him off for
:18:17. > :18:20.staying up late last night to watch him win the doubles, may have had a
:18:21. > :18:30.point. In the second though, Murray broke serve. But the Serb came good
:18:31. > :18:35.when it mattered to go two sets up. In the third Murray refused to lie
:18:36. > :18:35.down, forcing a tie-break. But the world number one knows
:18:36. > :18:43.down, forcing a tie-break. But the things quickly. He took the match
:18:44. > :18:48.with an ace. And with it a trophy that he has made his own. So once
:18:49. > :18:53.again it is the Serbs were celebrating here in Melbourne. Novak
:18:54. > :18:59.Djokovic is six time winner of the Australian Open. Andy Murray five
:19:00. > :19:04.times runner-up. He will have something to distract him from his
:19:05. > :19:09.disappointment. He is due on the first flight home. His wife, Kim,
:19:10. > :19:16.due to give birth any day. Jon Donnison, BBC News, Melbourne.
:19:17. > :19:20.The FA Cup fifth round draw was made a few minutes ago. Chelsea will face
:19:21. > :19:26.Manchester city after the London club thrashed MK Dons 5-1.
:19:27. > :19:30.Shrewsbury Town's reward for wheat in the fifth round is a home tie
:19:31. > :19:37.against Manchester United. Earlier Everton beat Carlisle. After that
:19:38. > :19:39.match both managers expressed their disappointment that the referee had
:19:40. > :19:43.received a complaint from a player about racist chanting during the
:19:44. > :19:48.game. This was Brunton Park just a month
:19:49. > :19:52.ago. Like so many others, Carlisle United were homeless. There are
:19:53. > :19:55.recent return has brought the city together. But camaraderie alone
:19:56. > :20:02.would not stop Everton. Two minutes gone and they were already in front.
:20:03. > :20:07.Everton, whilst not entirely comfortable, took charge. When Ross
:20:08. > :20:11.Barkley drilled in their third goal, any chance of an upset was over.
:20:12. > :20:18.Carlisle's Ron may have ended but the recovery continues. For MK Dons,
:20:19. > :20:22.the visit of Chelsea was another milestone in their history. After
:20:23. > :20:27.falling behind, Darren potter Paton -- took a chance and it paid off. A
:20:28. > :20:30.few months ago Chelsea could have folded but confidence has been
:20:31. > :20:35.renewed under Guus Hiddink. A hat-trick from Oscar turned the game
:20:36. > :20:38.into a training ground routine. Premier League attack against
:20:39. > :20:44.Championship defence. The rest was a formality. Oscar leaves with the
:20:45. > :20:48.match ball. Chelsea with further signs of progress. Katie Gornall,

:20:56. > :20:58.The Scottish League Cup Allders, Celtic, have been knocked out of the
:20:59. > :21:03.convocation by Ross County. Celtic scored within the first minute of
:21:04. > :21:07.the semifinal but had a player sent off. Ross County took advantage and
:21:08. > :21:13.booked their place in the league cup final for the very first time with a
:21:14. > :21:14.3-1 victory. They will face Hibernian in the final in March.
:21:15. > :21:17.That is all for now. Our main news again -
:21:18. > :21:20.tributes are being paid to one of Britain's best known and best
:21:21. > :21:22.loved broadcasters - Sir Terry Wogan - who's
:21:23. > :21:25.died at the age of 77. There'll be a special edition
:21:26. > :21:28.of the One Show tomorrow night looking back on his life -
:21:29. > :21:30.that's at 7pm on Monday In a moment - the news
:21:31. > :21:37.where you are - but we'll leave you with Sir Terry's own words
:21:38. > :21:51.about being on the air I just loved the nature of it. The
:21:52. > :21:54.show is my creation and so I impose my own timing of it, my own sense of
:21:55. > :21:55.humour. I
