This is news from yesterday, but as a fan of the presenter, I thought i'd do a thread recognising him.
The 1st face of Channel 4 in the UK and presenter of the great game, Countdown.
I've never really had a chance to watch it that much recently, but in my old job, I used to always take a late lunch break, to enable me to go to the Staff Room and watch Countdown. I couldnt ever do the Maths games, but the letters I often did well with!
It's very shocking to hear of his death at 61, even if you werent an avid watcher of the show, you knew of it, and you knew of Richard and his snazzy jackets and bad jokes!
It was just 1 of those things that, certainly for me, had been on TV all my life, and you just didnt expect it to ever NOT be.
It will be hard to carry it on now though.
