Tributes have poured in today for veteran BBC broadcaster Terry Wogan, who died aged 77 after a short illness.

Figures from politics, television, radio and sport have all shared their memories of the Limerick-born legend.

Among them was comedian Chris O'Dowd, who worked with Wogan on his show Moone Boy and tweeted a touching anecdote about his kind nature.

Terry Wogan was a busy man. But he kindly gave up a day to film some scenes for Moone Boy. He brought and wore his own 80's mustard suit.1/2
