About: After studying Psychology at university, Rich opted to throw all that education away by becoming a journalist. Luckily his time on student mags paid dividends when he landed a lowly editorial assistant job at GQ. Alas, renowned hedonist James Brown proved too much for him and drove Rich back to academia and an MA in Film from the BFI. Since then stints at the Telegraph, the (then) National Film Theatre, Titan Magazines and Future Publishing followed, including a spell on Sky Movies Magazine before coming to Zone in November 2009. Rich does the odd bit of freelance scribbling for Total Film, DVD & Blu-ray Review and TVBite.com and writes screenplays for fun in his spare time (not that his agent likes him referring to it as "fun").
Strange but true: Rich was thrown out of an MTV studio audience for audibly calling the presenter a bad word live on air.
