Terry's extensive television credits include his live chat show series Wogan which he presented three times a week for seven years on BBC1, Song For Europe, The Eurovision Song Contest, Lunchtime With Wogan, Come Dancing, Celebrity Squares, New Faces and Blankety Blank. More recently Terry has presented Wogan's Island, Do The Right Thing, Auntie's Bloomers, Auntie's Sporting Bloomers, the National Lottery Live and Wogan's Web.
