Sara Cox paid an emotional tribute to Steve Wright on BBC Radio 2 after news of his death was announced on Tuesday 13 February.

The DJ, who presented shows on Radio 1 and Radio 2 for more than 40 years, has passed away aged 69.

"Steve was an extraordinary broadcaster, a really, really kind person. He was witty, he was warm, and he was a huge, huge part of the Radio 2 family," Cox said, delivering a heartbreaking tribute.
