After seeing that message at the end of crystal maze (the one which stated he had died of traumatic head injuries (I have the episode credits in question on VHS)). I was surprised to see him at a RHPS re-union in 2010, funny how many people come back from the dead these days ;)

It wasn't even his nephew. It was a contestant on the Crystal Maze called Mac. And the programme was dedicated to him as he was in it.

The Hottest info in June 2008, is a new TV show called Richard O Brian's Dead Strange.
It's about strange unusual and alternative death related tales......... comming soon I hope, as I supply themed hearse. The car that says thank you and celebrates a loved ones life. The alternatine to black and a natural choice.

Richard will be reprising his role as the Child Catcher for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's last 2 weeks of UK tour, in September, and later this year will be doing the role for a month in Singapore.

Richard O'BRIEN is alive and well, and appeared last month (april) as the usherette in the RHS tour at Wimbledon. He's not actually touring with them but if you search his name on WireImage you'll see him as usherette. He says he's reworking the Stripper (one of his old unheard-of musicals)with hopes of getting it into production soon.

a few years back after watching a repeat of some of the early episodes of "The Crystal Maze" a statement popped up saying that Richard O Brian had died in a motorbike accident and since then Ed Tudor Pole took over the Maze lead- but then shocked i was to learn that he was to be appearing in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I was shocked and quite puzzled as to why the editors of the programme would make a statement about something that was not true!!

Spotted at Charity event in London. Said he was writing and that Crystal Maze was fun!

I was lucky enough to meet Mr O'Brien last year when I was working. I was performing close up magic at an event and he was one of their guests of honour. I did not get chance to speak to him much about what he was up to and he was a little vague, he said he had various projects in the pipeline.
Sam
Was that him on the Childrens Party at the Palace BBC 25.6.06, playing the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang !!!!?
lizzie
No, Ed Tudor Pole was better!
Another Chris
He also played the bed guy in a film that was out a few years back called 'Dark City', it was quite good. Had him, Keifer Sutherland, Rufus Sewell, Jennifer Connely, Angel out or Home and Away and William Hurt.

Look people, Richard O'Brien (thats right O'BRIEN with an e...plebs)wrote Rocky Horror (with only two chords, some stones records and a dream), made a hollywood film of Rocky Horror, starred in Crystal Maze for what seemed like centuries (and was much better than Ed tudor-Pole, it must be mentioned...wheres he?)and lots of other stuff too I'm sure. The bloke deserves a break ok? What do you want, blood?
Rachel is a cowgirl
Richard O'Brian is touring with the cast of the Rocky horror picture show all over the uk and usa
