Wogan is a British television talk show which was broadcast on BBC1 from 1982 until 1992, presented by Terry Wogan. It was usually broadcast live from the BBC Television Theatre in Shepherd's Bush, London, until 1991. It was then broadcast from the BBC Television Centre (TVC). Some shows were pre-recorded, and then broadcast unedited "as live". Wogan ended its run in July 1992 (it was replaced in the schedule by the soap opera Eldorado). History Wogan's first foray into TV interviewing, and indeed to British television, was in 1972 on Lunchtime with Wogan on ITV, in 1973 he left and joined the BBC.

Grade also said "The series would bring a much needed element of surprise and unpredictability to BBC Television".

The final edition was broadcast on 3 July 1992, and replaced with the ill-fated soap Eldorado. Wogan briefly hosted a new weekly late night chat show, Terry Wogan's Friday Night, which started on 2 October 1992. However the new series was not a success and was cancelled after 20 episodes, ultimately leading to Wogan returning to radio in his Radio 2 breakfast slot. The series ended on 5 March 1993.
