Terry Wogan is reportedly in talks with Channel 4 to replace Paul O'Grady on his daily chatshow.

Wogan recently announced his retirement from Radio 2's breakfast programme but is said to be interested in the 5pm TV slot, the Daily Mail reports.

O'Grady is believed to be deciding his future with Channel 4 this week after threatening to leave the broadcaster over mooted budget cuts.

A source said: "Terry may have retired from his early morning radio show but he is still full of beans.

"He loved doing his chatshow and has always said he'd happily do it again. Everyone expects Paul O'Grady to leave."

A Channel 4 spokesperson said that reports of Wogan's appointment were "pure speculation".
