For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.As the list on the Daily Wail's website refers to 'broadcasters', rather than simply 'DJs', I'd certainly agree with the inclusion of Alan Coren, Brian Johnson, Alistair Cooke and Humphrey Lyttleton. If I was asked to make that shortlist up to a total of five nominees, I'd add in Terry Wogan (but then feel annoyed that I'd not got space left for Jeremy Hardy, Linda Smith, Simon Hoggart and Fergal Keane).
However, as most people here are concentrating solely on DJs, here's my own top 5:
1. Alex Lester
2. Martin Kelner
3. Terry Wogan
4. Sarah Kennedy
5. Desmond Carrington
(leaving me fed up that I've not got enough space left for Ken Bruce, John Peel and Charlie Gillett).

I would suggest that such was Wogan's popularity that the law of averages say that if one per cent of his audience voted, he would claim the top spot by miles.
My distaste of him is known to regulars, so I'll save my vitriol for another day -
my top five would be -
Kenny Everett
Alan Freeman
Paul Carrington (when he was on Signal Radio)
John Peel
Bruno Brookes (he gave me my first interviewing job!!)
