Sir Tony Hall, the BBC's Director-General, paid tribute to the broadcaster in an email to staff.
Quote MessageToday we lost a broadcasting legend, but also a dear friend. Terry Wogan was simply a wonderful man - courteous, courageous and delightfully mischievous. People watching and listening adored him. He's been part of our family for decades and we'll miss him greatly. Our hearts go out to his wife, Helen, and their children, Mark, Alan, and Katherine.
Tony Hall
