RIP!
Did you know he has only never wore a tie twice on television? That's how amazing he was.

Even though I hated his jokes, I couldn't help but like the guy.
A familiar face for all of us and will honestly be missed in this house!
Big Countdown fans.
Rest In Peace Richard.

Sad news. He seemed like a nice guy. Wasn't long ago he won that spelling programme on Bbc. RIP Richard.

Consonant, vowel, consonant, Richard.
Often lazily mocked, but he had charm and a sincere (and now sadly rare) ability to put the contestant genuinely at their ease. Definately one from the top then.
He will be sorely missed.
