+Ginny Lorenz She was amazing. I can't believe she's gone. Glad to hear her influence reached across the atlantic as well!

+Tiny Bag ProductionsThank you for your response. I've never before felt it so personally when a famous person has passed on. Victoria connected with us deeply. I'm so grateful to be able to continue enjoying her here on youtube. Best wishes to you from San Diego, CA.

she was a wonderful comedian and a wonderful person. As a teenager in NZ i watched her and was her biggest kiwi fan ... is sent her a post code from my town in NZ and she sent me a personally hand written post card back! I still have it and will always keep it.

Have you watched her sitcom Dinnerladies yet?

Totally agree with you!

Mainland? It's called England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and who can blame her?

A lot of interviews with comedians will be set pieces of their act.

A lot of it is made up for comedy effect. Her most honest interview is with Dawn French in More Girls Who Do Comedy. It's on KZfaq.

Suspect she didn't;t like his style - he had his annoying 'humour' that he thought was funny but it wasn't - similarly to Des O'Connor - equally unfunny and usually utterly uninformed.

Victoria also appeared on Parkinson talk show when he returned to the BBC in 1998, and she appeared a few times with Parky. Terry Wogan could be an appalling interviewer at times, his ego and arrogance got the better of him, making many interview awkward and an "all about me" attitude, which Steve Coogan used as Alan Partridge, he did admit a tiny bit of Alan comes from Wogan.

I've trying to compile a full list of all her TV appearances, and as far as I can see from various archives she only ever appeared on Wogan twice, and this is the latter appearance, when Wogan himself wasn't there. Her only other appearance was her first ever proper tv interview in 1982, so maybe her experience of it was part of the reason why she shyed away from interviews, although having said that I think both Vic and Wogan were legends.

She clearly saw through his pretence to the Oh so typical Irish 'insincerity' which never failed to arise after his numerous attempts at gags failed dismally.

It was her turn to wear it. Terry was letting the fresh air get to his scalp for a week.

I love that Vic dressed mostly casually and certainly comfortably. She is adorable, with flawless skin, shining mischievous eyes, and a quick mind. XOXO for you always Victoria.
