Richard Osman admits to being smitten by a particular James Bond actor.
In a recent interview with Metro, Richard Osman, renowned for his bestselling The Thursday Murder Club series, shared some exciting news with Graeme Green. The 53-year-old author and presenter has been making waves in the literary world with his murder mystery books, and now he's delving into a new series with his latest novel, We Solve Murders.

When asked about why he decided to embark on a new series instead of continuing with The Thursday Murder Club, Richard explained that as a writer, he wanted to explore different worlds and characters. He also felt that the characters in his first series needed a break after all the action they had been through. But fear not, fans of The Thursday Murder Club, Richard assures us that his new series will still have the same charm and wit that we all love.

Currently, there is a lot of buzz surrounding the Netflix adaptation of one of Richard's books. We Solve Murders follows the story of a retired cop, Steve Wheeler, who is forced to leave his peaceful life in the New Forest and travel the world with his daughter-in-law, Amy Wheeler, a bodyguard, in order to catch a murderer. With exotic locations like St Lucia, Dubai, and Ireland, this globetrotting adventure is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

When asked about his inspiration for the book, Richard revealed that he wanted to write something that would be both entertaining and funny. He also added that the main character, Steve, was partly based on himself, as they both share a love for cats and pub quizzes. However, Steve's love for Van Halen sets them apart.

The excitement for the Netflix adaptation is not only shared by readers but also by Richard himself. He recently visited the set and shared some photos with the star-studded cast, including the likes of Helen Mirren, Sir Ben Kingsley, and Pierce Brosnan. Speaking of meeting Pierce Brosnan, Richard couldn't help but gush about the experience, describing him as "the most handsome man who ever lived."

With a successful career in writing, presenting, and even podcasting, one might wonder what's next for Richard. When jokingly asked if he had plans to become a Christmas No 1 or a principal dancer in Swan Lake, Richard laughed it off and revealed that he's working on a grime mixtape. But on a serious note, he believes that all his ventures stem from one skill - putting words in the right order.

In a more personal moment, Richard opened up about his struggles with food addiction, which he has dealt with throughout his life. He shared that it's a constant battle, but it has also taught him to be less judgmental towards others and their actions. Richard also believes that this addiction could be linked to his father leaving the family when he was just nine years old. However, he chooses to focus on the positive and acknowledges that despite the challenges, he has been lucky in many ways.

As someone who has spent years presenting quizzes, it's no surprise that Richard still enjoys a good pub quiz with his family. He even joked that it's like the Olympics for people who can't do sports. With his new book, We Solve Murders, now available, fans are eagerly waiting to see what other adventures Richard has in store for us.
