Rich, a proud metalhead, is considered to be an outcast in the society in which he lives. He is very cynical, and particularly dislikes people he deems to be trying to "fit in," such as Mini, and he prefers to hang out with other "outcasts," such as Alo and Franky. However, his musical elitism, edgy dress sense and apparent pride is actually a mask to hide his own shyness around girls, among other things. It is only when he is confronted with a girl he likes that this insecurity comes out. As the series progresses, Rich begins to come out of his shell and more open to things he had previously expressed contempt for. Unlike his best friend, Alo Creevey, he has a difficult time talking to girls but eventually includes misfit Franky Fitzgerald into their little clique. He is an only child.

Though Rich lives the life of an outcast, this is in sharp contrast to the normal middle-class family he comes from – his father, a low-ranking civil servant, somewhat dismayed by his son's lifestyle, makes many efforts to connect with him. His mother is seen to be fussy and over-protective.

When he has a significant other, Rich will constantly shower them with affection. He loves pirate jackets. He plays the bass. He wants a kitten. He's scared to fall asleep on planes.

Setting=Bristol, South West England, 2011
