Famous names from Bob Hope to Tom Cruise and Barack Obama popped in for a chat, but now Oprah Winfrey is pulling the plug on her fabulously successful talk show.

Guest spot: Nicole Kidman on the Winfrey show this week

The star, whose TV career has made her a £1.4 billion fortune, has announced the 25th season in 2011 of the ABC daytime show will be the last.

Talk queen: Winfrey with Bob Hope in 1990 — and a playful sofa encounter with Tom Cruise in 2005

Industry insiders think Winfrey, 55, who broadcasts from Chicago and is one of the most influential opinion-makers in the US, will move with a similar format to a Los Angeles cable network.
