Some people have inquired about REG’s voiceover work in the new Nivea advertisement that has been screening in the U.K. The advertisement is the one for the men’s products and, apparently, you really have to listen to the voice to see that it IS Richard as he’s really altering it to sound quite different from the wonderful tones we are used to.

The new Argos advertisement is also screening on British TV. In the latest Richard is squashed between two enormous and menacing characters and phoning his personal assistant, Penny, to buy them both presents!

The latest issue of Radio Times (with Elton John is on the cover) has a small reference to Hound of The Baskervilles in “Over Christmas” section. There’s a small picture from the film but not of REG. The back page has sort of gossipy titbits from actress, Lisa Tarbuck. One snippet refers to REG. By all accounts she did some interviews of Hound stars, she states that she’d interviewed Richard before but didn’t get to know him. This time they had a laugh and she beat him at Boggle.

Thanks to Rosemary and Denise for the news.
