Radio Times: “I would love to have been a detective like my grandfather.“Sadly, I have a condition called nystagmus that means I’ve got terrible eyesight, so it was never a possibility.”Richard and his brother Mat were brought up by their mother, Brenda Wright.Their father left when Richard was nine years old.He later met his father as an adult but they didn’t form a close relationship.Richard said: “My dad’s side of the family wasn’t something I was interested in, because that’s not the family I grew up in.“It would, in a funny way, be like learning about strangers.“My family are the Wrights from Brighton and those are the people I feel genuinely connected to.”During the show, it was discovered that Richard’s four-times great-grandfather, Gabriel Gillam, born in Brighton in 1789 was a fisherman who lived with his wife in a poor area of Brighton.He turned to smuggling to feed his family.Richard said: “Early 19th-century Brighton was an incredibly poor place if you came from the fishing community.“Then suddenly the Prince Regent, later King George IV, decided to build the Royal Pavilion and Brighton became very fashionable.

Russia’s economy has avoided collapse so far, but trouble is looming. Here’s why

Russia’s economy has averted a devastating collapse so far despite unprecedented sanctions sparked by the war in Ukraine, allowing Vladimir Putin to rally his people against the West and in support of his invasion.Yet experts — and even top Russian officials — say trouble is right around the corner. Reserves that have propped up the economy to this point are starting to run out, and Moscow’s mayor is warning of mass job losses.

'Bloated' Vladimir Putin sparks health fears as he's seen gripping table for 'support'

Vladimir Putin looking "astonishingly weakened" has triggered fresh speculation about the Russian President's health.The Russia-Ukraine war appears to have taken a toll on Putin since he first ordered troops to invade the neighbouring nation on February 24. In the televised meeting on Thursday (April 21) a "bloated" Putin is sitting at a desk and discussing the ongoing invasion of Ukraine with his defence minister Sergei Shoigu.The pair are discussing the "liberation" of the heavily-bombed Ukrainian city of Mariupol and Putin looks very unwell.He grips the corner of the desk throughout the entire meeting and appears to be slightly slumped in his chair.Putin also seems to unintentionally grimace in between sentences as if he might be in physical discomfort or even pain.There have been longstanding theories about Putin's health woes, including one that he is suffering from thyroid cancer and has all the symptoms.

Putin tries to claim Mariupol victory but won't storm Ukraine holdout

KYIV, Ukraine - Russian President Vladimir Putin tried to claim victory in the strategic port of Mariupol on Thursday, even as he ordered his troops not to storm the last pocket of Ukrainian resistance in the war’s iconic battleground.Russian troops have besieged the southeastern city since the early days of the conflict and largely pulverized it — and top officials have repeatedly indicated it was about to fall, but Ukrainian forces stubbornly held on. In recent weeks, they holed up in a sprawling steel plant, and Russian forces pounded the industrial site and repeatedly issued ultimatums ordering the defenders to surrender.Putin said that, for now, he would not risk sending troops into the warren of tunnels under the giant Azovstal plant, instead preferring to isolate the holdouts who have captivated the world’s attention "so that not even a fly comes through." His defense minster said the plant was blocked off, while giving yet another prediction that the site could be taken in days.Putin's order may mean that Russian officials are hoping they can wait for the defenders to surrender after running out of food or ammunition.
