He presented Crufts 2005. He presents a Saturday morning show on Radio Berkshire and has a column in the daily mirror on fridays.
His height, or lack of it, is the source of much whimsical banter between him and his fellow Yorkshireman, Jeremy Clarkson, on Top Gear. Clarkson displays many devil-may-care characteristics of Yorkshire muck-spreading folk, whereas Richard has probably grasped earlier in his life how this may not work in his favour, being the size he is. He is the more human side of Top Gear, and certainly makes it much easier on the eye.

A former pupil of Ripon Grammar School, from 1987 to 1989 he attended Harrogate College of Art and Technology and was friends with author and academic Jonathan Baldwin.
