Is it uncool for younger folk to like any TV or radio presenter aged 55 or over

I shall be 24 this year but feel like the only younger Terry Wogan fan in Britain
Radio just would not be the same without his jocular Irish charm
and having not been around in the 70s to watch Sale Of The Century but having seen clips of it I think Nicholas Parsons is one of the greatest quizmasters on Brittish TV
And even at the grand age of 88 dear old Nick is still chairing that wonderful Radio 4 panel game Just A Minute which he has done for the past 45 years
As a young boy I also found Bob Monkhouse hillarious whether he was doing stand up or yet another quiz show what a shame we lost him in 2003

He had me crying with laughter when he presented Buzzcocks too
I really don't think this thread has much credibility because I think it's become quite cool to worship the oldies - dear old Bob Holness was a classic example of this.
The problem with what you're saying is that you allude to Radio 4 and I don't know anyone my age (29) who listens to it. I am partial to a bit of Just A Minute myself but it just doesn't appeal to the under 30s generally.
I am 20. I listen to Terry Wogan and do kinda a few oldie programmes.
Just enjoy doing what you do, and be proud to be an individual, without following the herd.
