Richard Rosson who's character is Rubber Ritchie, picked up a yoga book when he was 20 years old, tried a 20 minute sequence of stretches and relaxation exercises and was hooked. Ritchie had a background in stage performance from years in glam rock bands and decided to put a turn together demonstrating his extraordinary tricks to the world. He began to perform to astonished audiences on the streets of Covent Garden in London. He was quickly snapped up by the Circus of Horrors which took him on tour to the north of England and Scotland. Since then he has performed at all kinds of events from circus, to cabaret, to theatre, to opera, to television/film. He is an eye catching choice for photographers doing many adverts and promotional shoots for companies such as Microsoft, Kwikfit.
Ritchie appears regularly on television. Past appearances have included:
Have I got News For You (BBC1), Britain's Got Talent (ITV), Richard and Judy show (Ch4), Let Me Entertain You (BBC2), The Salon (Ch4), Dick and Dom in Da Bingalow (BBC1), Trisha (Ch5), and Channel 4 News. Ritchie had a part in the feature film 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'.
