"Terry Wogan has confirmed reports that his &amp;quot;good friend&amp;quot; Chris Evans will take over his BBC Radio 2 breakfast slot in the new year. Announcing the news on this morning&amp;#039;s show, Wogan said that he was sure his listeners would welcome Evans with &amp;quot;loyalty and support&amp;quot;. Wogan said: &amp;quot;It touches me deeply that I&amp;#039;ve played a part in your lives for, it seems, like generations. &amp;quot;This is not goodbye - not even au revoir. As we used to say when I was a boy, see you later alligator.&amp;quot; Wogan first hosted the breakfast show in 1972 and returned as its presenter in 1993, while Evans currently fronts Radio 2&amp;#039;s drivetime programme. Last month, commercial station trade body RadioCentre claimed that there would be a risk of the channel losing its older listeners if Wogan were replaced by Evans.
