Always interesting and well presented
Tony's show is wonderful because of the variety of guests and subjects presented on his programme. It's like a mix of a newspaper and a magazine.The nightly quiz is an institution! Thoroughly enjoyable. Great to settle down with before I go to sleep of an evening. May you be on air for many years to come Tony :)
The World according to Tony Delroy
Each weeknight, Tony Delroy brings an entertaining mix of politics, science, humour and gossip using wit, charm and tact. He neatly questions guests without showing an obvious bias and has selected some excellent soundtracks as intoductions to each segment.
just listen
A friend gave me this advice a few years back, n it was excellent advice indeed. Hitting the sleep button and dozing off to Tony is one of lifes little pleasures for me n many others- this show is a big part in many peoples lives, and it will be a sad day when he gives it away. His sense of humour ,especially evident during the nightly quiz, 'The Challenge', is a hoot, n his good grace make his show a real treat. Whatsmore, he is a Roosters fan!!
