	TERRY WOGAN
		But Terry Wogan has launched a savage attack on the corporation for "overpaying" a new generation of television presenters, wasting millions of pounds of licence fee-payers' money in the process.
		Although Wogan, who received a knighthood in 2005, does not name individual presenters, there was controversy earlier this year when it emerged that Jonathan Ross, the presenter of Film 2006, Friday Night With Jonathan Ross and programmes on Radio 2, had signed a three-year contract worth £18 million.
		Although Wogan, who works on a freelance basis, does not provide details of his own remuneration in the essay, he is reputed to earn £800,000 for presenting his breakfast programme on Radio 2.

		Wogan is particularly noted for his sardonic commentaries on the Eurovision Song Contest: he has been behind the microphone for BBC TV every year since 1980, as well as providing TV or radio commentaries for several editions in the 1970s.
