An absolute shock. Steve was a pioneer and giant of the airwaves. His legacy of honing the zoo format is so influential on radio shows today, especially breakfast shows.
I remember listening to him when he started at Radio 2 back in 1980 and seeing him at the Radio 1 roadshow that visited Southport Floral Hall Gardens in the early 80s. He was at one with his audience and had no airs and graces whatsoever. He was the quintessential showman. Ever a professional and mentor up until the end.
RIP Steve Wright
