Sir Terry Wogan said today that the amount of money raised by BBC Radio 2's Auction of Things That Money Can't Buy for Children in Need represented "the most amazing, the most wonderful day I've ever had on radio".
During the day, Martin Ainscough from Wigan bid £250,000 for Aled Jones and Katie Melua to perform a gig at Revolution in Manchester to raise money for the Prince's Trust. The bid took Radio 2's Children in Need auction total for 2007 so far to £649,000, which is already higher than the 2006 total of £512,450.
Other top bids included £75,000 for the opportunity to have lunch with Sir Terry and Sir Roger Moore.
