Clean
This also needs some cleanup, I think.
Feasibility of Article
Wikipedia is a serious, factual encyclopedia. I am sincerely doubtful that Ms Godfrey is not 90 next year; please can posts be kept sensible, please. I will remove it, unless anyone has proof of her age, and is prepared to back it up with hard evidence.--Jonfun 16:56, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
- As all good TOGs know, on her age, Fran will only say she is 'the wrong side of 40'. This means that anyone adding a year of birth to this article is probably doing so without knowing whether it is factual or not - and I doubt Fran would add one herself. 81.156.156.29 (talk) 20:04, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- Someone has added her year of birth as 1953. To my knowledge Fran has never revealed her age, but in case it is correct I've left it in and requested a reference. talk) 13:21, 19 October 2008 (UTC)]

My recent edits
I've had a go at tidying this up a bit, and adding the Sir Terry quotes as references. I think this article will need some more work doing to it though.
Fran poetry
Someone just changed this today [1], but I seem to remember it being "I'm in love with Fran Godfrey" rather than "I've fallen in love with Fran Godfrey". Listeners could have used both I suppose.
Companions
Moved to talk, any relevance? RJFJR (talk) 15:28, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Godfrey's newsreader companions on Wake Up to Wogan were:
- Alan Dedicoat
- John Marsh - Now freelance, after retiring in February 2007.
- Charles Nove
- Not as a section on her WUTW colleagues, but I suppose it could be included in a See also section. talk) 19:53, 17 June 2010 (UTC)]
Date of birth
While I'm here, why is her BBC biography given as a reference for her date of birth? It says nothing about this. I know it occurrs at the end of June as it's often been mentioned on air by presenters if she's presenting bulletins on her birthday, but a year has never been given.
