I wonder if Richard was still with us, would him and Carol still be doing it? Most probably, he struck me as the sort of person who'd have kept going, like Brucie.

Almost certainly I would have thought. Carol Vorderman would have probably stayed after Des had they not knocked her wage down by some obscene amount.

Probably safe to say, much like if you're fortunate enough to be in a job you enjoy, you don't do it for 23 years if you don't like it.
