Paul O’Grady’s long-time radio producer has said “we all feel robbed” while paying tribute to his late friend and colleague on Boom Radio.
Malcolm Prince worked with Paul at both BBC Radio 2 and independent station Boom Radio, until the entertainer’s death on March 28 and was also one of the first people to pay tribute to the late comic.
While introducing a repeat of Paul’s Christmas Day 2022 Boom Radio show, in a slot originally scheduled for a special Easter broadcast from the pair, Malcolm said: “Hello, I’m Malcolm and I’m usually referred to as Paul O’Grady’s long-suffering radio producer. “Right now you should be hearing the song Stop Me If You’ve Heard It All Before by Billy Ocean. “It would have been the opening track of the Team POG (Paul O’Grady) Easter day show but sadly, that’s not to be. “Paul’s sudden death on March the 28th shocked us all, his family, friends and fans. “We all feel robbed.
But I think we should count ourselves lucky because Paul O’Grady will never really leave us. “We have his award-winning books, we can still watch his hilarious chat shows and sitcoms, learn from his travelogues and documentaries, and remember thousands of his live performances on stage – and then there’s Miss Savage. “It’s an enormous and unique legacy and part of that was his radio show – Paul loved it, pure and simple. “That’s why he did it for so many years, and there was one programme in particular that Paul knew was just as important for his ‘other listener’. “Yes, he joked he couldn’t stand the run-up to the big day, but he knew it was a privilege to be there on Christmas Day with you.
